3. Turn ignition switch ON.

4. Check voltage between harness connector F44 terminal 3 and

ground with CONSULT-III or tester.

5. Turn ignition switch OFF.

6. Disconnect ECM harness connector.

7. Check harness continuity between harness connector F44 and

ECM as follows.

Refer to Wiring Diagram.

8. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

P0181 FTT SENSOR

Component Description

INFOID:0000000005257173

The fuel tank temperature sensor is used to detect the fuel tempera-

ture inside the fuel tank. The sensor modifies a voltage signal from

the ECM. The modified signal returns to the ECM as the fuel temper-

ature input. The sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the

change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor

decreases as temperature increases.

<Reference data>

*: This data is reference value and is measured between ECM terminal 107 (fuel tank
temperature sensor) and ground.

CAUTION:

Never use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output

voltage. Doing so may result in damage to the ECM's transistor.

Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

DTC Confirmation Procedure

INFOID:0000000005257175

NOTE:

If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always perform the following before conduct-

ing the next step.
1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

 WITH CONSULT-III

1. Turn ignition switch ON and wait at least 10 seconds.
2. Check 1st trip DTC.

If 1st trip DTC is detected, go to 

EC-199, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

If 1st trip DTC is not detected, go to following step.

3. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT-III.
4. Check “COOLAN TEMP/S” value.

If “COOLAN TEMP/S” is less than 60

°

C (140

°

F), the result will be OK.

If “COOLAN TEMP/S” is above 60

°

C (140

°

F), go to the following step.

5. Cool engine down until “COOLAN TEMP/S” is less than 60
