Transmission Temperature Gage - Cadillac ESCALADE EXT 2002 Manual

Transmission Temperature Gage

United States
Your vehicle is equipped with a transmission
temperature gage.
When your ignition is on, the gage shows the
temperature of the transmission fluid. The normal
operating range is from 100 _ F (38 _ C) to
about 265 _ F (130 _ C).
At approximately 265 _ F (130 _ C), the message center
will display a TRANS FLUID HOT message and the
transmission will enter a transmission protection mode.
When the transmission enters the protection mode,
you may notice a change in the transmission shifting
patterns. The transmission will return to normal shifting
patterns when the transmission fluid temperature falls
below 260 _ F (127 _ C).
