| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P0715 | Input/Turbine Speed Sensor "A" Circuit |
| P0717 | Input/Turbine Speed Sensor "A" Circuit No Signal |
DESCRIPTION
The ECM receives a signal from the transmission revolution sensor (NT) installed to the continuously variable transaxle to control the lock-up engagement pressure and forward and reverse clutch pressure.
The transmission revolution sensor (NT) detects the input turbine speed and sends a signal to the ECM.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The transmission revolution sensor (NT) is used to detect the input turbine speed. The ECM determines the necessary gear ratio based on a comparison of the transmission revolution sensor (NT) (input turbine speed) and transmission revolution sensor (NOUT) (output shaft speed) signals.
When the output shaft speed is higher than the expected value and the input turbine speed is less than 300 rpm while driving with the shift lever in D, the ECM will determine that the transmission revolution sensor (NT) is malfunctioning, illuminate the MIL and store a DTC.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
Perform initialization after replacing any parts related to the continuously variable transaxle system.
Check that no DTCs are stored after performing initialization.
Tech Tips
After performing repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.
Drive the vehicle for 2 seconds or more at 7 km/h (4 mph) or more with the shift lever in D.
Check for DTCs again.
PROCEDURE
READ VALUE USING GTS (SPD (NT) AND NT SENSOR VOLTAGE)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.
According to the display on the GTS, read the Data List.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Range | Normal Condition | Diagnostic Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SPD (NT) | Input turbine speed (NT) | min.: 0 rpm max.: 12750 rpm |
|
Data is displayed in increments of 50 rpm. |
| NT Sensor Voltage | Transmission revolution sensor (NT) output voltage | min.: 0.000 V max.: 4.999 V |
0.1 to 1.9 V: Engine idling (Vehicle stopped with shift lever in P or N) | - |

INSPECT TRANSMISSION REVOLUTION SENSOR (NT)
Remove the transmission revolution sensor (NT).
Connect the battery to the transmission revolution sensor (NT) as shown in the illustration.
| *1 | Battery | *2 | Ammeter |
| *a | Component without harness connected (Transmission Revolution Sensor (NT)) |
*b | Magnet |
| *c | 5 mm or less | - | - |
Wave a magnetic object left and right 5 mm (0.197 in.) or less from the tip of the transmission revolution sensor (NT) to output a high/low signal while measuring the current.
Note
Make sure to wave the magnetic object during the inspection. The current will not change unless the magnetic object is moved as shown in the illustration.
Measure the current according to the value(s) in the table below.
