Pinpoint Test B : TFT (Transmission Fluid Temperature) Sensor: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Ford F-550 Super Duty, 2018 Ford F-450 Super Duty, 2018 Ford F-350 Super Duty, and 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Refer to Transmission Controls - TorqShift 6 for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation 

The TFT sensor is a temperature dependent resistor that is in contact with transmission fluid in the transmission sump area. The PCM monitors the voltage across the TFT sensor, which changes as transmission fluid temperature varies. The PCM uses the TFT sensor signal as an input for its strategy for shifting and TCC operation. The PCM also uses the TFT sensor signal for transmission fault detection and diagnostics.
