Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation

The transaxle fluid temperature sensor is a thermistor which changes value based on the temperature of the Transaxle fluid. A high transaxle fluid temperature may cause the vehicle to operate in Hot Mode. While in Hot Mode, shift points may be altered, 4th gear disabled, and TCC forced ON in 2nd gear.
