Inspection Procedure: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Lexus IS 250. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (ATF TEMPERATURE SENSOR) 
    1. Disconnect the transmission wire connector from the transmission.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      1 (E2) - 9 (OIL) 79 Ω to 156 kΩ
      1 (E2) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher
      9 (OIL) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher

      HINT: 

      If the resistance is out of the specified range with either the ATF temperature shown in the table below, the driveability of the vehicle may decrease.

      ATF Temperature Specified Condition
      10°C (50°F) 5 to 8 kΩ
      25°C (77°F) 2.5 to 4.5 kΩ
      110°C (230°F) 0.22 to 0.28 kΩ

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE TRANSMISSION WIRE 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM) 
    1. Connect the transmission wire connector to the transmission.

    2. Disconnect the ECM connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      E4-27 (OIL) - E4-26 (EOIL) 79 Ω to 156 kΩ
    4. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance (Check or short)

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      E4-27 (OIL) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher
      E4-26 (EOIL) - Body ground

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK → REPLACE ECM
