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
