1)Remove solenoid harness with ATF temperature sensor. icon 
2)Check ATF temperature sensor resistance as follows.
a)Warm up ATF temperature sensor (1).
b)Using service wire, check resistance between terminals of solenoid harness connector (2). Check that its resistance decreases as its temperature increases.
If measured resistance is out of specified resistance, replace solenoid harness with ATF temperature sensor.
ATF temperature sensor resistance
40 °C (104 °F): 1.8 – 2.2 kΩ
60 °C (140 °F): 0.9 – 1.1 kΩ
80 °C (176 °F): 450 – 550 Ω
