InspectionTransmission Fluid Temperature Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance (P071000)
DESCRIPTION
The No. 1 ATF temperature sensor converts the fluid temperature into a resistance
value for use by the ECM.
The ECM applies a voltage to the temperature sensor through terminal THO1 of
the ECM.
The sensor resistance changes with the ATF temperature. As the temperature becomes
hi ...

LOCK
The steering wheel is locked and the key can be removed.
(Vehicles with an automatic transmission: The key can be removed only when the
shift lever is in P.)

Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor "B" Circuit Short to Battery or Open (P274015)
DESCRIPTION
The No. 2 ATF temperature sensor is installed in the transmission valve body
assembly.
If the ECM detects an abnormally high ATF temperature near this sensor, it illuminates
the warning indicator.
HINT:
The temperature of ATF easily rises when towing, climbing hills, in traffic, ...
