Oil level sensor connector OIL-LVL

Pin assignment for combined oil level / temperature sensor

1 top = S-GND = oil level sensor ground
2 top = OIL-LVL = oil level signal

1 bottom = S-GND = temperature sensor ground
2 bottom = T-SUMP = temperature signal



Troubleshooting

  1. Check the plug connections and cables.
    (Instruction: see "Related Topics")
  2. Disconnect the plug connection at the combined oil level / temperature sensor.
    Check that the sensor is internally intact:
    When measuring the resistance, please observe the dependence on the temperature.
    Simultaneously to the resistance measurement, the sensor temperature has to be measured, too, or estimated with utmost accuracy. Read the nominal resistance from the temperature curve below and compare it to the measured or estimated temperature.
    Measure the resistance between pin 1 and and pin 2 (top).
    The sensor works correctly if the measured resistance deviates from the nominal resistance by no more than ± 5 ohms.
  3. Replace the control unit.
  4. If none of the above measures brings any improvement, please contact the Voith Turbo headquarters.

Characteristic

Final function check

If the defective component cannot be clearly identified, you should try to reproduce the fault:

  • Reinstall the component in the vehicle.
  • Test the function.

After the fault has been eliminated, the following steps have to be carried out:

  • Conduct a test drive with function check.
  • Read out the fault memory.
  • Check the transmission for leaks.
  • Perform a final visual inspection.

These steps are necessary to ensure the entire vehicle functions.
