CVT Fluid Temperature Sensor On-Vehicle Inspection

  1. Turn ignition switch to "OFF" position.
  2. Disconnect connector (1) from solenoid harness.
  3. Check for proper terminal connection to solenoid harness connector.
  4. Check resistance of CVT fluid temperature sensor and its circuit between terminals "20" and "22" at connector (2) of solenoid harness.

    If faulty condition is found, replace valve body assembly.

    CVT fluid temperature sensor resistance: 

    20 °C (68 °F): Approx. 6.5 kΩ 

    80 °C (176 °F): Approx. 0.9 kΩ
