Code No. P0712: Malfunction of CVT Fluid Temperature Sensor (Short)
Code No. P0713: Malfunction of CVT Fluid Temperature Sensor (Open)




DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION




JUDGEMENT CRITERIA



  • CVT-ECU detects the fluid temperature -40°C or less for 5 seconds <P0713>.
  • CVT-ECU detects the fluid temperature 180°C or more for 5 seconds <P0712>.

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Malfunction of the valve body assembly (Faulty CVT fluid temperature sensor)
  • Damaged wiring harness and connectors
  • Malfunction of CVT-ECU

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE


STEP 1. M.U.T.-III data list


Item 05: CVT fluid temperature sensor signal (Refer to Service Data Reference Table ).
