Hyundai Santa Fe: Automatic Transaxle Control System / Transaxle Oil Temperature Sensor. Description and operation
• |
Transaxle oil temperature sensor monitors the automatic transaxle fluid's
temperature and conveys the readings to TCM.
|
• |
It is an NTC (Negative Thermal Coefficient) sensor whose resistance
has an inversely proportional relationship with the temperature level.
|
• |
Data produced by this sensor is used to identify damper clutch activation
and deactivation zones within the low temperature and high temperature
range and to compensate hydraulic pressure levels during gear changes.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of an air bag deploying unexpectedly and causing serious
injury or death:
Do not hit or allow any objects to impact the locations where air
bags or sensors are installed.
Do not perform maintenance on or around the air bag sensors. If
the location or angle of the sensors is altered, the air bags may deploy when
they should not or may not deploy when they should.
Installing bumper guards with nongenuine Hyundai or non-equivalent
parts may adversely affect the collision and airbag deployment performance.
Press the Engine Start/Stop button to the OFF or ACC position and
wait for 3 minutes when the vehicle is being towed to prevent inadvertent air
bag deployment.
Have all air bag repairs performed by an authorized HYUNDAI dealer.
