DTC P0712: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor "A" Circuit Low Input; DTC P0713: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor "A" Circuit High Input: Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Toyota Camry. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (ATF TEMPERATURE SENSOR)
- Remove the TCM from the transaxle.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 17 (E2) - 18 (THO1) Always 79 Ω to 156 kΩ 17 (E2) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher 18 (THO1) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher HINT:
If the resistance is out of the specified range with 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 TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Component without harness connected
