Trans temp sensor locations. 47RE
As my transmission failed and is currently torn apart, I talked to the expert at the best shop in town. Bottom line is the transmission was doomed from day one as there was no clearance in the forward clutch. FYI, A1 Transmission in Red Deer are a bunch of crooks, DON'T EVER GO THERE!
Anyway, Mel (the expert) and I were talking about sensor location. Specifically this one, circled in red.
The reason this location is bad is due to the temperature sensor depth. It protrudes too far and can cause the forward clutch (i believe) to not fully engage.
This is the port that Mel strongly suggested.
Reason is that it is part of a cross drilled passage, and will not effect anything, but is still in excellent position to acquire very accurate transmission temperature. The rear sensor in the first picture is also a good location, but not as good as the location Mel suggested.
Hope this helps in the decision of sensor location. Oh ya, the reason for two sensors is one is a mechanical gauge sensor, and the other for the EJWA.
