CAN OBD2 read transmission temperature?
Yep, you can get the transmission temp with the OBD2 bluetooth adapter and Torque Pro.
What is a transmission temperature sensor?
A (TFT) transmission fluid temperature sensor is one of several sensors providing input to the (TCM) transmission control module. It’s located in the valve body or oil pan of the transmission or transaxle. The TCM uses this sensor to monitor the temperature of the transmission fluid.
Where is the temperature sensor located in a transaxle?
It’s located in the valve body or oil pan of the transmission or transaxle. The TCM uses this sensor to monitor the temperature of the transmission fluid.
What does transmission over temp on 2006 Commander mean?
An other member found the PCM at fault. On 2005 and on JGC the TCM (transmission control module) is integral to the PCM. The temperature sensor signal goes to the PCM and this one will trigger the overtemp light. What it the PCM? Powertrain Control Module.
How does the temperature of the fluid affect the transmission?
It means that the sensor’s resistance decreases as the fluid’s temperature increases. The TCM uses this input along with other sensor inputs to control transmission operations. When the fluid temperature is cold, the TCM delays (TCC) torque converter clutch engagement until the fluid reaches a specific temperature.
Where is the transmission fluid temperature sensor located?
Although generic, the exact repair steps may vary depending on make/model. The transmission fluid temperature sensor (TFT) sensor produces a signal that is used by the powertrain control module (PCM) to determine shift points, line pressure and torque converter clutch (TCC) control. The sensor is often located in the transmission oil pan.
What are the OBD codes for a fluid temp sensor?

What kind of sensor is on the transmission?
The transmission on a vehicle has a number of different sensors that affect the way it performs, including the speed sensor and a sensor that monitors the transmission temperature to help prevent overheating.
