1. While pressing A in the figure, turn B anti-clockwise to unlock the CVT assembly connector, and disconnect the connector.
 
2.
cautionInsert a thermometer which is made of metal or is put in a metal case (overall length: approximately 150 - 200 mm) into the transmission case hole approximately 80 mm.
Remove the oil filler tube assembly (Refer to Transmission Assembly), and insert a thermometer into the transmission case hole.
noteIf a radiation thermometer (noncontact thermometer) is available, use it to measure the surface temperature of the oil pan.
3. Measure the resistance between the sensor-side connector terminal No. 12 of the CVT assembly connector and the earth (terminal No. 18).
Standard value:
 
Fluid temperature (°C)Resistance kΩ
206.29 - 6.83
502.10 - 2.25
800.85 - 0.90
4. Measure the resistance between the sensor-side connector terminal No. 12 of the CVT assembly connector and the transmission case.
Normal condition: No continuity
5.
cautionThe CVT fluid temperature sensor cannot be removed or replaced as a single unit. When the CVT fluid temperature sensor needs to be replaced, replace the valve body harness.
When the resistance of the CVT fluid temperature sensor is outside the standard value, replace the valve body harness (Refer to ).
