Battery/Ambient Temperature Sensor (Bussed Input)
The
battery temperature sensor is located in the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM). This communication bus information is used to control charging system, engine and transaxle operation. The
TCM uses the battery temperature signal to estimate transaxle fluid temperature. When the TCM detects lower temperatures, it adjusts the operation of the transaxle to allow for slower response of the valves and fluid. If a failure of the Transmission Temperature Sensor occurs, the TCM uses the Battery Temperature signal along with engine coolant temperature to calculate the temperature.
