DTC Troubleshooting: P0713 (28)

DTC P0713:

CVTF Temperature Sensor (Open)

NOTE:

- Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot with the HDS, and review the General Troubleshooting Information How To Troubleshoot The CVT System.
- This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

1. Check the CVTF Temp Sensor (V) with the HDS in the A/T data list.

Does the CVTF Temp Sensor (V) exceed 4.93 V?

YES -

Go to step 2.

NO -

Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the CVTF temperature sensor and the PCM.

2. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

3. Disconnect the solenoid harness 8P connector.

4. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

5. Measure the voltage between solenoid harness 8P connector terminal No. 7 and body ground.





Is there about 5 V?

YES -

Go to step 6.

NO -

Go to step 7.

6. Measure the voltage between solenoid harness 8P connector terminals No. 6 and No. 7.





Is there about 5 V?

YES -

Replace the CVTF temperature sensor Service and Repair, then go to step 17.

NO -

Repair an open in the wire between PCM connector terminal B34 and the solenoid harness 8P connector, then go to step 17.

7. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

8. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

9. Disconnect PCM connector B (49P).

10. Check for continuity between PCM connector terminal B28 and solenoid harness 8P connector terminal No. 7.





Is there continuity?

YES -

Go to step 11.

NO -

Repair an open in the wire between PCM connector terminal B28 and the solenoid harness 8P connector, then go to step 16.

11. Reconnect all connector.

12. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software PCM Update, or substitute a known-good PCM.

13. Start the engine in P, and wait for at least 20 seconds.

14. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0713 indicated?

YES -

If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1.

NO -

Go to step 15.

15. Monitor the OBD status for P0713 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

Does the HDS indicate PASSED?

YES -

If the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM Service and Repair. If any other DTCs were indicated on step 14, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.

NO -

Check for poor connections and loose terminals at the CVTF temperature sensor and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1. If the HDS indicates NOT COMPLETED, return to step 13 and recheck.

16. Connect PCM connector B (49P).

17. Connect the CVTF temperature sensor connector.

18. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

19. Start the engine in P, and wait for at least 20 seconds.

20. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0713 indicated?

YES -

Check for poor connections and loose terminals at the CVTF temperature sensor and the PCM, then go to step 1.

NO -

Go to step 21.

21. Monitor the OBD status for P0713 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

Does the HDS indicate PASSED?

YES -

Troubleshooting is complete. If any other DTCs were indicated on step 20, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.

NO -

Check for poor connections and loose terminals at the CVTF temperature sensor and the PCM, then go to step 1. If the HDS indicates NOT COMPLETED, return to step 19 and recheck.
