What causes P1711 on a Ford?

Self-test run on a cold transmission outside the required temperature window Failed transmission fluid temperature sensor Internal harness fault to the TFT sensor Low fluid level skewing temperature readings TCM reference fault

How do I fix P1711 on a Ford?

Warm the transmission into the specified test window and re-run the test Compare TFT readings to actual fluid temperature Check fluid level and condition Inspect the internal transmission harness and connector Test TFT resistance against temperature charts before replacing
