U151F AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE – AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE SYSTEMAX–51
AX
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
These DTCs indicate an open or short in the automatic transmission fluid (ATF) temperature sensor (TFT
sensor) circuit. The automatic transmission fluid (ATF) temperature sensor converts ATF temperature to
an electrical resistance value. Based on the resistance, the ECM determines the ATF temperature, and
the ECM detects an opens or shorts in the ATF temperature circuit. If the resistance value of the ATF
temperature is less than 79
*1or more than 156 k *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: 150
C (302F) or more is indicated regardless of the actual ATF temperature.
*2: -40
C (-40F) is indicated regardless of the actual ATF temperature.
HINT:
The ATF temperature can be checked on the OBD II scan tool or intelligent tester display.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Using the intelligent tester to read the DATA LIST allows the values or states of switches, sensors,
actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be
very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is
disturbed. Reading the DATA LIST information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.
NOTICE:
In the table below, the value listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend
solely on these reference values when deciding whether apart is faulty or not.
1. READ DATA LIST
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Turn the ignition switch off.
(c) Connect the intelligent tester together with the CAN VIM (controller area network vehicle
interface module) to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(e) Turn on the tester.
(f) Select the item "DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST".
(g) According to the display on the tester, read the "DATA LIST".
HINT:
When DTC P0712 is output and OBD II scan tool or intelligent tester output is 150
C (302F),
there is a short circuit.
When DTC P0713 is output and OBD II scan tool or intelligent tester output is -40
C (-40F),
there is an open circuit.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Using the intelligent tester to perform ACTIVE TEST allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be
operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because
intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing ACTIVE TEST
early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. DATA LIST information can be displayed while
performing ACTIVE TEST.
1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Turn the ignition switch off.
(c) Connect the intelligent tester together with the CAN VIM (controller area network vehicle
interface module) to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(e) Turn on the tester.
(f) Select the item "DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST".
(g) According to the display on the tester, perform the "ACTIVE TEST".
HINT:
• This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 60 km/h (37 mph) or more.
• This test can be conducted in the 5th gear.
(h) Lightly depress the accelerator pedal and check that the engine speed does not change
abruptly.
HINT:
• When changing the accelerator pedal opening angle while driving, if the engine speed does
not change, lock-up is on.
• Slowly release, but not fully, the accelerator pedal in order to decelerate. (Fully releasing the
pedal will close the throttle valve and lock-up may be turned off.)
