OEM Oil Temp Sensor??

So I was looking through ExtremePSI's OEM selection. I found this EXTREME PSI : Your #1 Source for In Stock Performance Parts any know what this is for, or if there would be a way to log it?

It's used in automatic transmissions. I'm unsure of its exact purpose, however.

For the ECU to monitor the transmission temp would be my guess.

Ok, that makes sense. I just looked at the auto trans I have and see it now. Does the ecu read the temps at all or just set to turn on the light when it overheats?

So turbosax, any idea on what sensor was/is used for the t-case temp light on the cluster?

The FSM calls out the service specifications as follows:
0.57-0.69 ohms at 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
16.7-20.5 kiloohms at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
