DTC P0711 Step 5 - 12:

Circuit Description
When the transmission fluid is cold, the sensor resistance is high. As the transmission fluid warms up, the sensor resistance decreases. This diagnostic monitors the TFT sensor circuit. The circuit may be functional but not in the normal operating range. This diagnostic indicates stuck, erratic, intermittent, or skewed values, resulting in reduced system performance. The TFT sensor range is -40 to+225°C (-40 to +437°F).
If the PCM detects an intermittent voltage or no voltage change in the TFT sensor circuit, then DTC P0711 sets.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
DTC P0711 sets when both of the following conditions occur:

Condition 1
12 seconds after engine start up the ambient temperature and engine coolant temperature is more than -10°C (14°F).

Condition 2
The change in transmission fluid temperature is less than 10°C (50°F) after 20 minutes and 10 km (6.2 miles) of normal driving.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
^ A scan tool can clear the DTC.
^ The PCM clears the DTC from PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without a non-emission-related diagnostic fault occurring.
^ The PCM cancels the DTC default actions when the fault no longer exists and the DTC passes.

Test Description
The numbers below refers to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
3. This step attempts to repeat the condition that set the DTC.
6. This step tests the circuit for an open or high resistance.
7. This step tests the circuit for a short to ground.
