DTC P0713: ATF Temperature Sensor Circuit (Open)

NOTE:
^ Record all freeze data and review General Troubleshooting Information before you troubleshoot.
^ This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

1. Check ATF temperature sensor voltage with the HDS in the A/T data list.
Does ATF temperature sensor voltage exceed 4.93 V?
YES-Go to step 2.
NO-Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the ATF temperature sensor and PCM.
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Disconnect the ATF temperature sensor connector at the transmission end cover.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).





5. Measure the voltage between ATF temperature sensor connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.
Is there about 5 V?
YES-Go to step 6.
NO-Go to step 7.





6. Measure the voltage between ATF temperature sensor connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2.
Is there about 5 V?
YES-Replace the ATF temperature sensor, then go to step 8.
NO-Repair open in the wire between PCM connector terminal D10 and the ATF temperature sensor connector.





7. Measure the voltage between PCM connector terminal C3 and body ground.
Is there about 5 V ?
YES-Repair open in the wire between PCM connector terminal C3 and the ATF temperature sensor connector, then go to step 8.
NO-Check for loose or poor connections at PCM connector terminal C3. If the connection is OK, update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good PCM, replace the original PCM.
8. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
9. Test-drive the vehicle for several minutes in the D position in all five gears.
10. Check the OBD STATUS in DTCs MENU for a pass/fail test of code P0713.
Did the result indicate a pass?
YES-The problem has been corrected.A
NO-Return to step 1 and rechecks
