DTC P0713 Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor Circuit High Input (Figure OBD-68)

Figure OBD-68: Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor Circuit

Circuit Description

The transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor is part of the pressure switch manifold (PSM) assembly, and is located in the
transmission oil pan. The TFT sensor is a thermistor, which changes value based on the temperature of the transmission fluid. The
sensor has a negative-temperature coefficient. This means that as the temperature increases, the resistance decreases, as the temper-
ature decreases the resistance increases. The transmission control module (TCM) supplies a 5 volt reference voltage signal to the
TFT sensor and measures the voltage drop in the circuit. When the transmission is cold, the sensor resistance is high and the TCM
detects high signal voltage. As the fluid temperature warms to a normal operating temperature, the resistance becomes less and the
signal voltage decreases. The TCM uses this information to control shift quality and torque converter clutch (TCC) apply.

DTC P0713 is a type B DTC.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P0713 sets when the TCM detects a voltage greater than 4.84 volts for 2.5 seconds.

On-Board Diagnostics

_____________________________________________

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The TCM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) during the second consecutive trip in which the Conditions for

Setting the DTC are met.

• The TCM uses a TFT default value.

• The TCM freezes shift adapts.

• The TCM stores this information as Failure Records.

• The TCM stores DTC P0218 in TCM history.

• The TCM inhibits TCC engagement.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

A scan tool can clear the code from TCM history. The TCM automatically clears the DTC from TCM history if the vehicle com-
pletes 40 warm-up cycles without failure.

Diagnostic Aids

• Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections at the TCM. Inspect for the following conditions:

• A bent terminal

• A backed-out terminal

• A damaged terminal

• Poor terminal tension

• A chafed wire

• A broken wire inside the insulation

• When diagnosing for an intermittent short or open, massage the wiring harness while watching the test equipment for a

change.

• You may have to drive the vehicle in order to experience a condition.

• A short to power on circuit 2762 will allow P0713 to set.

• A short to power may also damage the TFT sensor.

NOTE: Before clearing DTC(s) use the scan tool “Capture info”
to record Freeze Frame and Failure Records for reference, as data
will be lost when “Clear Info” function is used

Was the “On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check” per-
formed?

1.

Install the scan tool.

2.

Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.

NOTE: Before clearing the DTC, use the scan tool in order to
record the Freeze Frame and Failure Records for reference. The
Clear Info function will erase the data.

3.

Record the DTC Freeze Frame and Failure Records.

4.

Clear the DTC.

5.

Select TFT on the scan tool.

6.

Drive the vehicle and inspect for an unrealistic TFT reading.

Is the TFT reading at or below the specified value?

-36°C (-
