What Does a Transmission Temperature Sensor Do?
In the world of car mechanics one of the causes of transmission failures is when things get too hot. According to experts 90 percent of transmission failures occur due, to overheating alone. The primary reason behind this overheating is the transmission fluid being overworked. When the fluid experiences heat or deteriorates over time it loses its ability to perform functions like cooling, lubrication and maintaining fluid pressure. This can lead to potential harm to the transmission.
