Transmission Temperature Sensor/Switch: Description and Operation

COMPONENT PARTS

CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : CVT Fluid Temperature Sensor

- The CVT fluid temperature sensor is included in the control valve assembly.
- The CVT fluid temperature sensor detects the CVT fluid temperature and sends a signal to the TCM.
- The fluid temperature sensor uses a thermistor, and changes the signal voltage by converting changes in the
CVT fluid temperature to a resistance value. TCM evaluates the CVT fluid temperature from the signal voltage value.
