    2. 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 Always 10 kΩ or higher
      18 (THO1) - Body ground 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

    NG → See step   2 

    OK → See step   3 

  2. REPLACE TRANSMISSION WIRE (ATF TEMPERATURE SENSOR). Refer to  REMOVAL 
  3. REPLACE TCM. Refer to  REMOVAL
