GF27.19-P-4017AHM Transmission Oil Temperature Sensor, Component Description

GF27.19-P-4017AHM Transmission oil temperature sensor, component description
- TRANSMISSION 722.904/906/999
- refinement package
- as of model year 09

Component Identification:

Location
The transmission oil temperature sensor (VGS) (Y3/8s2) is integrated into the fully integrated transmission control (VGS) control unit

Task
The transmission oil temperature sensor (VGS) records the transmission oil temperature. This is processed as an input variable by the fully integrated transmission control (VGS) control unit.

Design
The transmission oil temperature sensor (VGS) has a measuring resistor with a negative temperature coefficient (NTC).

NTC
NTC means "Negative Temperature Coefficient", which means: the electrical resistance reduces for an increasing temperature (NTC thermistor).
