Transmission Temperature Gauge
Your Transmission Temperature Gauge indicates the temperature of
the oil in your transmission. Watch this gauge to know when your
transmission is overheating. If it is, have it checked by an authorized
service representative. Maximum transmission temperature may vary,
depending upon the transmission and type of lubricant. It is typically
250° F (121° C); check your transmission’s owner’s manual.
Front Drive Axle or Rear Drive Axle Temperature Gauge
These gauges indicate the temperature of the lubricant in your vehicle’s
axle(s). These temperatures will vary with the kind of load you are carry-
ing and the driving conditions you encounter. Maximum axle temperature
may vary, depending upon the axle and type of lubricant. Very high tem-
peratures signal a need to have your axle(s)’ lubrication checked.
CAUTION: Driving with very hot temperatures in your
rear drive axles can cause serious damage to axle bear-
ings and seals. Check axle lubrication if a driver temper-
ature alarm sounds.
