AX–50U151F AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE – AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE SYSTEM
AX
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 temperature. As the temperature becomes
higher, the sensor resistance decreases.
One terminal of the sensor is grounded so that the sensor resistance decreases and the voltage goes
down as the temperature 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 (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.

DESCRIPTION
The ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature sensor converts the fluid temperature into a
resistance value which is input into the ECM.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ATF temperature sensor converts the ATF temperature 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 20
C (68F) after running the vehicle for a certain period, the ECM interprets this as
a fault, and turns on the MIL.
When the ATF temperature is 110
C (230F) or more after 17 minutes of engine cold start, the ECM also
determines this as a fault, turns on the MIL, and stores the DTC.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses signals from the vehicle speed sensor to detect the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th
or 5th gear).
Then the ECM compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ECM memory to detect mechanical
problems of the shift solenoid valves, valve body or automatic transaxle (clutch, brake or gear etc.).
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves "ON/OFF". According to the input
shaft revolution, intermediate (counter) shaft revolution and output shaft revolution, the ECM detects the
actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th gear position). When the gear position commanded by the
ECM and the actual gear position are not the same, the ECM illuminates the MIL.
HINT:
Example:
When either condition (a) or (b) is met, the ECM detects a malfunction.
(a) The ECM commands the 1st gear, but the actual gear is 2nd.
(b) The ECM commands the 2nd gear, but the actual gear is 1st.
