Logic Flow Charts (Monitor Sequence):

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Conditions
^ Vehicle speed: more than 10 km/h (6.2 mph).

Judgement Criteria
^ Value of temperature of transmission fluid: less than -40°C (-104°F). (At once)

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
Start the engine, drive at more than 60 km/h (37 mph) for 15 minutes in total.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST LIKELY CAUSES FOR THIS CODE TO BE SET ARE:)
^ Malfunction of the transmission fluid temperature sensor system (open circuit) circuit
^ Damaged harness or connector
^ Malfunction of the transmission fluid temperature sensor system (open circuit)
^ Malfunction of the TCM

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the TCM terminal voltage.
[C-37 connector (vehicle side, connected)]

Turn ON the ignition switch, and check the voltage between terminal No. 39 and No. 50.

^ Transmission fluid 20°C (68°F): Approx. 2.52 V
^ Transmission fluid 80°C (176°F): Approx. 0.69 V

Q:Is the check result normal?
YES: Go to Step 6.
NO: Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the transmission fluid temperature sensor as a single unit.

Q:Is the check result normal?
YES: Go to Step 3.
NO: Replace the valve body assembly.

STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between the transmission fluid temperature sensor and TCM.
Check for continuity between B-111 A/T control solenoid valve assembly connector terminals and C-37 TCM terminals.

^ Between B-111 terminal No. 2 and C-37 terminal No. 39: Continuity exists.
^ Between B-111 terminal No. 3 and C-37 terminal No. 50: Continuity exists.

When the continuity check result is OK, check that the wiring harness is not shorted to the body and other wiring harness.

Q:Is the check result normal?
YES: Go to Step 4.
NO: Repair or replace the failure section.

STEP 4. Check the TCM power supply and ground.

Q:Is the check result normal?
YES: Go to Step 5.
NO: Repair or replace the failure section.

STEP 5. Check the TCM connector pin terminal and the connection status.

Q:Is there a failure point?
YES: Repair or replace the failure section.
NO: Replace the TCM.

STEP 6. Erase the DTC code, and drive the vehicle for a while.
Check that the normal code is displayed.

Q:Is the check result normal?
YES: The procedure is complete.
NO: Return to START.
