DTC P0711 Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor "A" Performance: Description

The ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature sensor converts the fluid temperature into a resistance value which is input into the ECM.

DTC CHART

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
P0711	Condition A (2-trip detection logic): First, ECM checks for following conditions: 17 minutes or more after engine is started and after 9 km (5.6 miles) or more of driving, ECT is -15°C (5°F) or more After starting engine and certain period of time has elapsed, ECT and IAT are -10°C (14°F) or more If conditions are met, ECM then checks if ATF temperature is less than 20°C (68°F). If so, ECM interprets this as fault and illuminates MIL. Condition B (2-trip detection logic): First, ECM checks for following conditions: ECT is 60°C (140°F) or more After starting engine and certain period of time has elapsed, ECT is less than 35°C (95°F) If conditions are met, ECM then checks if ATF temperature is 100°C (212°F) or more. If so, ECM interprets this as fault and illuminates MIL.	Open or short in ATF temperature sensor circuit Transmission wire (ATF temperature sensor) ECM

P0711

Condition A (2-trip detection logic):
First, ECM checks for following conditions:

17 minutes or more after engine is started and after 9 km (5.6 miles) or more of driving, ECT is -15°C (5°F) or more
After starting engine and certain period of time has elapsed, ECT and IAT are -10°C (14°F) or more If conditions are met, ECM then checks if ATF temperature is less than 20°C (68°F). If so, ECM interprets this as fault and illuminates MIL.

Condition B (2-trip detection logic):
First, ECM checks for following conditions:

ECT is 60°C (140°F) or more
After starting engine and certain period of time has elapsed, ECT is less than 35°C (95°F)

If conditions are met, ECM then checks if ATF temperature is 100°C (212°F) or more. If so, ECM interprets this as fault and illuminates MIL.
