DTC P0710-00: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance [08/2019 - 08/2020]: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Toyota Avalon, 2021 Toyota Avalon, 2020 Toyota Avalon, and 2019 Toyota Avalon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0710-00) 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
    3. Turn the Techstream on.
    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Trouble Codes.

      Powertrain > Transmission > Trouble Codes 

    5. Read the DTCs using the Techstream.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      Only DTC P0710-00 is output A
      DTC P0710-00 and P0710-15 are output B
      DTC P0710-00 and other DTCs are output C

      HINT: 

      If any DTCs other than DTC P0710-00 are output, perform troubleshooting for those DTCs first.

    Result: 

    GO TO DTC CHART (DTC P0710-15). Refer to  DTC P0710-15: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor "A" Circuit Short to Battery or Open [04/2018 -]  

    Result: 

    GO TO DTC CHART. Refer to  DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART [08/2019 - 08/2020] 

    Result: 

    See step  2

  2. INSPECT AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID LEVEL 
    1. Check the automatic transaxle fluid level.

      Refer to ADJUSTMENT [04/2018 - 08/2020]

      OK

      Automatic transaxle fluid level is correct.

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    ADJUST AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID LEVEL. Refer to  ADJUSTMENT [04/2018 - 08/2020] 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK TRANSMISSION WIRE CIRCUIT 
    1. Disconnect the C56 ECM connector.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      C56-86 (THO1) - C56-133 (ETHW) ATF temperature 10°C (50°F) 5 to 8 kΩ
      C56-86 (THO1) - C56-133 (ETHW) ATF temperature 110°C (230°F) 0.22 to 0.28 kΩ
      C56-133 (ETHW) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C56-86 (THO1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      HINT: 

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

      ATF Temperature Specified Condition
      25°C (77°F) 2.5 to 4.5 kΩ

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    See step  5

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4

  4. REPLACE ECM 
    1. Replace the ECM.

      Refer to COMPONENTS [04/2018 -]

      Result

      Proceed to
      NEXT

    Result: 

    NEXT 

    PERFORM REGISTRATION. Refer to  REGISTRATION [04/2018 -] 

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM) 
    1. Disconnect the C52 transmission wire connector.
    2. Disconnect the C56 ECM connector.
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      C52-1 (OT+) - C56-86 (THO1) Always Below 1 Ω
      C52-2 (OT-) - C56-133 (ETHW) Always Below 1 Ω
      C52-1 (OT+) or C56-86 (THO1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C52-2 (OT-) or C56-133 (ETHW) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPLACE TRANSMISSION WIRE (ATF TEMPERATURE SENSOR). Refer to  COMPONENTS [04/2018 -] 

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM)
