DTC P0712 FLUID (OIL) TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT - LOW

COMPONENT LOCATION
Refer to DTC P0711. P0711

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P0711. P0711

DTC DESCRIPTION
PCM displays this code if it detects the conditions listed for more than 10 seconds. PCM recognizes that the oil temperature is 85°C (185°F) since this code is sensed.

DTC DETECTING CONDITION

DTC DETECTING CONDITION:

SPECIFICATION
Refer to DTC P0711. P0711

MONITOR SCAN TOOL DATA
1. Connect SCAN TOOL to data link connector (DLC).
2. Engine ON.
3. Monitor the TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR parameter on the SCAN TOOL.
Specification: Increasing gradually

Specification:

4. Does TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR follow the reference data?
YES > Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in the sensor's and/or PCM's connector or was repaired and PCM memory was not cleared. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and go to Verification of Vehicle Repair procedure.
NO > Go to Terminal & connector inspection procedure.

TERMINAL & CONNECTOR INSPECTION
Refer to DTC P0711. P0711

SIGNAL CIRCUIT INSPECTION
1. Ignition ON & Engine OFF.
2. Disconnect the TRANSAXLE FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR connector.
3. Measure the voltage between terminal 1 of the TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR harness connector and chassis ground.
Specification: Approximately 5V

Specification:

4. Is voltage within specifications?
YES > Go to Component inspection procedure.
NO > Check for short to ground in harness. Repair as necessary and go to Verification of Vehicle Repair procedure.
