Transaxle Fluid Temperature Sensor
Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove fresh air duct and air cleaner assembly. Disconnect transaxle 9-pin harness connector. Connect ohmmeter test leads between transaxle 9-pin harness connector terminals "E" and "H". See Figure. If resistance is not within specification for temperature, replace TFT sensor. See TFT SENSOR RESISTANCE table.
