How do I fix P0218 code?
What repairs can fix the P0218 code?
- Repairing a transmission fluid leak by replacing parts such as the radiator, transmission cooler, transmission cooler lines, or transmission pan gasket.
- Replacing the transmission temperature sensor.
- Replacing the powertrain control module.
What does code P0218 mean?
When an OBD-II equipped vehicle returns a P0218, it means the transmission fluid temperature detected by the powertrain control module has exceeded the allowable limit (typically 290 degrees fahrenheit) for an extended period of time.
What is an over temperature condition?
An overheat condition means the temperature gauge reads temperature that is higher than normal or more than the allowable temperature for the engine to function properly.
Where do I find the code on my PT Cruiser?
To get the codes, move the key from Run to Off to Run to Off to Run within five seconds. It does not always work the first time. (Run is JUST before Start). The code will show up in the odometer – thank your lucky stars for this, since the codes used to get blinked on the engine light.
When to use p0714 transmission fluid temperature sensor?
Code P0714 is set when the PCM detects an intermittent problem with the transmission fluid temperature sensor. An example of a transmission fluid temperature sensor: Related trans fluid temperature sensor “A” circuit codes: P0710 Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor A Circuit Malfunction
How to get the fuel injection code on a Chrysler PT Cruiser?
All Chrysler vehicles with fuel injection have had some form of “error checking.” In many older vehicles, a person could easily turn the key back and forth a few times to get a two-digit code . With the PT Cruiser, a longer code seems to be used.
What happens to the engine light on a Chrysler PT Cruiser?
The “engine light” stays on when a serious emissions or engine problem is found, until the code is erased. Chrysler vehicles have a “limp in” mode which reverts to a pre-programmed “guessing map” for timing, fuel delivery, etc. when a critical sensor fails.
What do the computer codes on a PT Cruiser mean?
