Diagnosis Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK CVT FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect TCM connector.
    3. Check resistance between TCM vehicle side harness connector terminals.
    TERMINAL RESISTANCE REFERENCE

    TCM vehicle side harness connector Condition Resistance (Approx.)
    Connector Terminal
    F15 13 25 When CVT fluid temperature is 20°C (68°F) 6.5 kΩ
    When CVT fluid temperature is 80° (176°F) 0.9 kΩ

    Is the inspection result normal? 

    YES: GO TO 5.

    NO: GO TO 2.
