Sensor

There are two types of Delphi transmission temperature sensors: a metal stator sensor and a plastic sump sensor. Both measure automatic transmission fluid temperature, with the stator sensor placed near the stator and the sump sensor in the sump tank. The sensors provide a signal to the powertrain control module. The stator sensor has a brass or stainless steel shell while the sump sensor uses high-temperature plastic. Both sensors contain a negative temperature coefficient thermistor to change resistance inversely with temperature.

Delphi Transmission Temperature


Sensors
 Description

There are two primary types of Delphi


Transmission Temperature Sensors that
monitor the automatic transmission
fluid—the metal stator sensor and the
plastic sump sensor. As continuous
function devices that change resistance
inversely to temperature, these sensors
measure the fluid temperature in two
transmission environments: in-line near
the stator and the sump tank. A signal is
provided to the powertrain control
module.

The stator sensor consists of:


Delphi Transmission Temperature Sensors
 Brass or stainless steel shell
 Thermal grease
 Insulating sleeve
 Gasket
 Insert-molded connector containing a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor

The sump sensor consists of:

 High-temperature plastic shell


 Patented pre-mold subassembly that contains a NTC with a crimpless conductive
path

 Benefits
 Simple, lightweight, and cost-effective design
 Design flexibility with customized packaging of:
- Mounting features
- Connection system
- Resistance output
- Customized to match calibration criteria
 Capable of system integration
 100 percent resistance calibration verification helps ensure accuracy and reliability
 Crimpless conductive path (sump sensor) enhances reliability and helps assure
accuracy
