.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The PCM (terminal 74) applies 5 volts to the 

transmission fluid temperature sensor output ter-
minal (terminal 1).

•  The transmission fluid temperature sensor circuit 

is grounded to the PCM (terminal 69).

• When the transmission fluid temperature is cold, 

the transmission fluid temperature sensor resis-
tance is high. When the transmission fluid tem-
perature is hot, the transmission fluid 
temperature sensor resistance is low.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

• If transmission fluid temperature is below speci-

fied value even after driving test for more than 
specified period, PCM judges that transmission 
fluid temperature sensor has a failure.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

• Continuous

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST 
LIKELY CAUSES FOR THIS CODE TO BE 
SET ARE:)

• Malfunction of the transmission fluid temperature 

sensor circuit

• Damaged harness or connector

• Malfunction of the PCM

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable

• MB991910: MUT-III Main Harness A

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 15: 
Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Start the engine.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode.

• Item 15: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor.

• When the engine is cool: Almost equal to the ambi-

ent temperature (atmospheric temperature)
NOTE: Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading 
mode for item number 13, Intake Air Temperature 
(IAT) Sensor and note the temperature measure-
ment. When the engine is cool, the temperature 
should be almost equal to the ambient temperature 
(atmospheric temperature), and the IAT sensor mea-
surement should be approximately the same as the 
Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor.

• When the engine is warm: 70 − 80°C (158 − 176°F).

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

− How to 

Cope with Intermittent Malfunction 

P.00-14

.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Measure the sensor output voltage at the A/T 
control solenoid valve assembly connector B-108 by 
backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect connector B-108.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 1 and ground by 

backprobing.

• When transmission fluid temperature is 20°C (68°F), 

voltage should measure between 3.8 and 4.0 volts.

• When transmission fluid temperature is 40°C (104°F), 

voltage should measure between 3.2 and 3.4 volts.

• When transmission fluid temperature is 80°C (176°F), 

voltage should measure between 1.7 and 1.9 volts.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage within the specified range?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Measure the ground voltage at the A/T control 
solenoid valve assembly connector B-108 by backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect connector B-108.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 2 and ground by 

backprobing.

• The voltage should measure 0.5 volt or less.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage 0.5 volt or less?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Go to Step 7.
