CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature sensor
converts the fluid temperature into a resistance value which is
input into the ECM.
The ECM applies a voltage to the temperature sensor through
ECM terminal THO1.
The sensor resistance changes with the transmission fluid tem-
perature. As the temperature becomes higher, the sensor resis-
tance decreases.
One terminal of the sensor is grounded so that the sensor resis-
tance decreases and the voltage goes down as the tempera-
ture becomes higher.
The ECM calculates the fluid temperature based on the voltage
signal.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
These DTCs indicate an open or short in the automatic transmission fluid (ATF) temperature sensor circuit.
The automatic transmission fluid (ATF) temperature sensor converts ATF temperature to an electrical resis-
tance value. Based on the resistance, the ECM determines the ATF temperature, and the ECM detects an
open or short in the ATF temperature circuit. If the resistance value of the ATF temperature is less than 79W
*1
or more than 156kW*2, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the ATF sensor or wiring. The ECM will turn on
the MIL and store the DTC.
*1: 150C (302F) or more is indicated regardless of the actual ATF temperature.
*2: ±40C (±40F) is indicated regardless of the actual ATF temperature.
HINT:
The ATF temperature can be checked on the OBD II scan tool or hand±held tester display.

HINT:
According to the DATA LIST displayed by the OBD II scan tool or hand±held tester, you can read the value
of the switch, sensor, actuator and so on without parts removal. Reading the DATA LIST as the first step of
troubleshooting is one method to shorten labor time.
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Turn the ignition switch off.
(c) Connect the OBD II scan tool or hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(e) Push the ºONº button of the OBD II scan tool or the hand±held tester.
(f) When you use the hand±held tester:
Select the item ºDIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LISTº.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
This DTC indicates that there is a problem with output from the automatic transmission fluid (ATF) tempera-
ture sensor and that the sensor itself is defective. The ATF temperature sensor converts the ATF tempera-
ture to an electrical resistance value. Based on the resistance, the ECM determines the ATF temperature
and detects an open or short in the ATF temperature circuit or a fault in the ATF temperature sensor.
After running the vehicle for a certain period, the ATF temperature should increase. If the ATF temperature
is below 20C (68F) after running the vehicle for a certain period, the ECM interprets this as a fault, and
turns on the MIL.
