Q: What does code P1713 mean?

Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor Circuit. P1713 on a Mazda means the transmission control module (TCM) has detected an abnormal signal from the transmission fluid temperature (TFT) sensor circuit. The TCM compares the sensor's voltage against expected values for the fluid temperature and flags the code when the reading falls outside the valid range or behaves erratically.
