AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSIS
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION23A-35
SYMPTOM CHART M1231008000277
During diagnosis, a DTC code associated with
other system may be set when the ignition switch
is turned on with connector(s) disconnected. On
completion, confirm all systems for DTC code(s).
If DTC code(s) are set, erase them all.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES
(P0713): Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor System (Open Circuit)
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The A/T-ECU connector B-22 (terminal 6) applies
5 volts to the transmission fluid temperature sen-
sor output terminal (terminal 1).
The transmission fluid temperature sensor circuit
is grounded to the A/T-ECU connector B-22 (ter-
minal 12).
When the transmission fluid temperature is cold,
the transmission fluid temperature sensor resis-
tance is high. When the transmission fluid tem-
perature is hot, the transmission fluid
temperature sensor resistance is low.
.
DTC SET CONDITIONS
Check Conditions
Engine speed: 1,000 r/min or more.
Output speed: 1,000 r/min or more.
Accumulated time in above condition: 10 min-
utes.
Judgement Criteria
Transmission fluid temperature sensor voltage:
4.5 volts or more. (1 second)
.
OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
Start the engine, drive at 60 km/h or more for 15 min-
utes in total.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST
LIKELY CAUSES FOR THIS CODE TO BE
SET ARE:)
Malfunction of the transmission fluid temperature
sensor circuit
Damaged harness or connector
Malfunction of the A/T-ECUCircuit drawings
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80
Refer to component locations GROUP-70
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tool:
MB991958: Diagnostic Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)
MB991824: V.C.I.
MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable
MB991910: MUT-III Main Harness A

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSIS
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION23A-37
STEP 1. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, check data list
item 7: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor.
To prevent damage to diagnostic tool MB991958, always
turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting diagnostic tool
MB991958.
(1) Connect diagnostic tool MB991958 to the data link
connector.
(2) Start the engine.
(3) Set diagnostic tool MB991958 to the data reading mode.
Item 7: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor.
When the engine is cool: Diagnostic tool display is
almost equal to the ambient temperature (atmo-
spheric temperature)
NOTE: Set diagnostic tool MB991958 to the Engine
MPI data list reading mode for item number 5, Intake
Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor and note the tempera-
ture measurement. When the engine is cool, the
temperature should be almost equal to the ambient
temperature (atmospheric temperature), and the IAT
sensor measurement should be approximately the
same as the Transmission Fluid Temperature Sen-
sor.
When the engine is warm, at approximately running
temperature: 70
80C.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?
YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.
Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points
How to
Cope with Intermittent Malfunction P.00-14.
NO : Go to Step 2.

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.
Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points
How to
Cope with Intermittent Malfunction P.00-14.
NO : Replace the A/T-ECU.
STEP 7. Check A/T control solenoid valve assembly
connector B-108 for loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are the connector and terminals in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged components. Refer to
GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection
P.00E-2.
