DTC P0713 Non European or N. American Emissions

DTC Descriptor

This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:

DTC P0713 Transmission Fluid Temperature (TFT) Sensor Circuit High Voltage

Conditions for Setting the DTC
    • The transmission control module (TCM) detects that the analog-to-digital (A/D) value of transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor signal is less than 15 and the minimum A/D value is more than 943, when it is past 15 minutes after ignition ON -- A/D value 943:4.7 volts.
    • After one occurrence of above detection
    • Gear selector position is except park and neutral
    • Engine revolution is 400 RPM or greater

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
    • The TCM will request the illumination of the hold lamp and store the DTC when the TCM detects a failure on the first ignition cycle.
    • The TCM judges the temperature of the transmission fluid is 200°C (392°F).
    • No lockup control
    • No 4th gear
    • No self-learning control
    • No timing solenoid control N-D

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
    • The TCM turns OFF the hold lamp when no further failures are detected on the next ignition cycle.
    • The scan tool can clear the DTC from the TCM history.
    • The TCM clears the DTC from the TCM history memory after 40 consecutive ignition cycles without fault.
    • The TCM detects the temperature of the transmission fluid is between 0-150°C for 10 seconds continuously.

Cause of Failure
    • The wiring harness or connector between the TFT sensor and the TCM
    • The TFT sensor
    • The TCM
