P0182 Fuel Temperature Sensor Circuit Low Input
Possible causes
– Faulty Fuel Temperature Sensor
– Fuel Temperature Sensor harness is open or shorted
– Fuel Temperature Sensor circuit poor electrical connection
– Electric throttle control actuator
– Accelerator pedal position sensor
– Fuel Temperature Sensor harness is open or shorted
– Fuel Temperature Sensor circuit poor electrical connection
– Electric throttle control actuator
– Accelerator pedal position sensor
What about the obd code?
An excessively low voltage from the sensor is sent to ECM.
Symptoms
– Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
P0182 Description
The fuel tank temperature sensor is used to detect the fuel temperature inside the fuel tank. The sensor modifies a voltage signal from the ECM. The modified signal returns to the ECM as the fuel temperature input. The sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as temperature increases..
