DTC P0711  : CVT Fluid Temperature Sensor (Range/Performance)

NOTE: 

DTC Description Confirmed DTC Pending DTC Freeze Frame
P0711 CVT Fluid Temperature Sensor (Range/Performance)      

DTC (CVT)

  1. Current transmission fluid temperature check

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -2. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    CVTF Temperature 14 or below deg.F    
    -10 or below deg.C

    Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

    YES 

    Go to step 2.

    NO 

    Go to step 3.

  2. Transmission fluid temperature sensor check (after warm up)

    -1. Start the engine, and warm it up to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on twice).

    -2. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    CVTF Temperature 14 or below deg.F    
    -10 or below deg.C

    Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

    14 deg.F (-10 deg.C) or below

    Faulty transmission fluid temperature sensor. Replace solenoid wire harness A .

    Abnormal temperature rise

    If there is an abnormal temperature rise in temperature of the transmission fluid temperature sensor, check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good TCM , then recheck. If this DTC goes away and the TCM was substituted, replace the original TCM .

    14 deg.F (-10 deg.C) or higher

    The transmission fluid temperature sensor is OK. Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections and loose terminals between the transmission fluid temperature sensor and the TCM. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.

  3. Problem verification

    -1. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    CVTF Temperature 230 or higher deg.F    
    110 or higher deg.C

    Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

    YES 

    The failure is duplicated. Go to step 4.

    NO 

    Check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good TCM , then recheck. If this DTC goes away and the TCM was substituted, replace the original TCM .

  4. Transmission fluid temperature sensor check (after cool down)

    -1. Let the engine cool until the Engine Coolant Temperature reads 122 deg.F (50 deg.C) or below with the HDS.

    Signal Current conditions
    Values Unit
    Engine Coolant Temperature    

    -2. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    CVTF Temperature 230 or higher deg.F    
    110 or higher deg.C

    Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

    230 deg.F (110 deg.C) or higher

    Faulty transmission fluid temperature sensor. Replace solenoid wire harness A .

    Abnormal temperature decrease

    If there is an abnormal temperature decrease in temperature of the transmission fluid temperature sensor, check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good TCM , then recheck. If this DTC goes away and the TCM was substituted, replace the original TCM .

    230 deg.F (110 deg.C) or below

    The transmission fluid temperature sensor is OK. Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections and loose terminals between the transmission fluid temperature sensor and the TCM. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.
