1. While pressing A in the figure, turn B anti-clockwise to unlock the CVT assembly connector, and disconnect the connector.
2. | caution | Insert 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.
| note | If 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 | | 20 | 6.29 - 6.83 | | 50 | 2.10 - 2.25 | | 80 | 0.85 - 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. | caution | The 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

).
