Location Of Transmission Fluid Temp Sensor (g93)

[Dave-G]

Could anyone locate this sensor for me please?

 

other fault codes found: 01166 engine torque signal, signal outside specifications - intermittent.

 

00652 Gear monitoring: implausible signal intermittent.

 

The Auto box is a bit erratic of late - mostly when cold... so I feel it best to try the auto fluid temp sensor first?

 

Engine code is AUY if that helps.

Hi Dave,

 

I've had a look on ETKA but can't find this item.

 

(I always thought one used VAG-COM or similar to check the temperature when refilling, but this doesn't mean that there isn't a temperature sensor...).

 

:angry:

vag-com must get the temperature from somewhere :angry:

[NikpV]

Yep gets it from the Transmission fluid temperature sensor (TFT) dtc 00300 - still no closer to te location though :angry:

[Dave-G]

Can't find it on ford TIS :D

vag-com must get the temperature from somewhere :D

 

:D

 

It's magic! :D

 

 

(Hmm, yes, now that I think about it.... :D )

[Dave-G]

Thanks nik - so I can't really check it myself... don't feel qualified to dismantle a gearbox :D

 

I'll be taking it to an auto specialist on monday for their ideas. I have warranty direct to fall back on :D

[Dave-G]

Huh! The auto specialist is some 12 miles away, and the gearbox had warmed up to working temperature

 

 

Could not fault it on the test drive :lol:

 

I've arranged to leave it there tonight for a cold test drive & diagnostic.

[Dave-G]

Hmm - they suggest a possible fix would be replace fluid (using dextron 2) and an additive called lube gard.

 

I seem to recall something about dextron being the wrong fluid, but they say they do loads of Galaxy's with it :D

 

No fault codes were found at start up.
