Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor A Circuit Range/Performance

Where it lives

For P0711, the part to look at first is the sensor named here.

Check these first

• Faulty transmission fluid temperature sensor
• Fluid temperature reading out of range
• Damaged sensor wiring or connector
• Low or overheated transmission fluid
• Faulty TCM input

What to do next

1. Read the TFT value at cold start and warm-up with a scan tool
2. Compare sensor temperature to engine coolant and ambient
3. Check transmission fluid level and condition
4. Test the sensor's resistance-temperature curve
5. Replace the sensor and recheck the monitor after a drive
