TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SENSOR INSPECTION [FN4A-EL]
id0517a1801000
On-Vehicle Inspection
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the fresh-air duct. (See INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [ZY].)
-
Caution
-
• Water or foreign objects entering the connector can cause a poor connection or corrosion. Be sure not to drop water or foreign objects on the connector when disconnecting it.
3. Disconnect the transaxle connector.
4. Measure the resistance between terminals E and H.
-
• If there is any malfunction, perform the off-vehicle inspection of TFT sensor. (See TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [FN4A-EL].)

5. Install the fresh-air duct. (See INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [ZY].)
6. Connect the negative battery cable.
Off-Vehicle Inspection
-
Warning
-
• A hot transaxle and ATF can cause severe burns. Turn off the engine and wait until they are cool before replacing ATF.
1. Remove the control valve body. (See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL [FN4A-EL].)
2. Remove the transaxle connector.
3. Remove the TFT sensor from the strainer, and connect it to the transaxle connector.
-
Caution
-
• Be sure not to drop water. The TFT sensor is not waterproof type.
4. Place the TFT sensor and a thermometer in ATF as shown, and heat the ATF gradually.
5. Measure resistance between the terminals of the TFT sensor.
-
• If there is any malfunction, replace the TFT sensor. (See TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [FN4A-EL].)
