    I recently bought a scangauge II and input the TFT code from the website. However, i was wondering if there are 2 sensors, one in the pan and one in the torque converter. And if so, does anyone have the xgauge codes for both?

    They are both on their site for my '13.

    If they don't show a second for your '08, it probably doesn't have one.

    IMHO #2 isn't really uber critical anyway. Just keeping an eye on one is 100% better than not seeing anything.

    They list 4 different ones for pre 2010. I'd try all of them, and hopefully 2 work.

    Thanks for this link! It definitely helped.
    It seems like there are two temperature sensors in the 2nd gen Tacoma Transmission.
    The code I use as TCT fluctuates a lot, so I’m going with that one as the torque converter. The second one I labeled TFT for the pan temperature. I’m very happy with them now.

    The only thing I’m wondering about now is how accurate they are. I recently did a flush and fill on the tranny, and I put the vehicle in “Transmission Temp Check Mode” to check the fluid level. Then after I finished checking the fluid level, I quickly sealed up the plugs, turned off the vehicle while it was still within the correct check temperatures according to the “A/T Temp” light. I plugged in my scangauge and restarted the truck, it was only reading 93 degrees Fahrenheit! I wonder how accurate the people who used their scangauge to check fluid level are?

    This is what I’m using now:
    “Torque Converter Temp - TCT”
    07e021d9 txd
    032180000000 rxf
    2810 rxd
    00070065fe70 mth

    “Transmission Fluid Temp -TFT” in the pan I assume
    07e021d9 txd
    032100000000 rxf
    1808 rxd
    00090005ffd8 mth

    In the temp check mode the light goes on solid when the oil is between 90-115°F iirc
