DTC P0183: Fuel Temperature Sensor Circuit High Voltage

NOTE: Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information.

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
2. Check the FUEL TEMPERATURE SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

Is about -40 ° F (-40 ° C) or less, or 4.92 V or more indicated?

YES - Go to step 3.

NO - Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the fuel temperature sensor and the PCM.

3. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Disconnect the fuel temperature sensor 2P connector.




5. Connect fuel temperature sensor 2P connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2 with a jumper wire.
6. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
7. Check the FUEL TEMPERATURE SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

Is about -40 ° F (-40 ° C) or less, or 4.92 V or more indicated?

YES - Go to step 8.

NO - Go to step 20.

8. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
9. Remove the jumper wire from the fuel temperature sensor 2P connector.
10. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).




11. Measure voltage between fuel temperature sensor 2P connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.

Is there about 5 V?

YES - Go to step 12.

NO - Go to step 16.

12. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
13. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
14. Disconnect PCM connector B (44P).




15. Check for continuity between fuel temperature sensor 2P connector terminal No. 1 and PCM connector terminal B33.

Is there continuity?

YES - Go to step 27.

NO - Repair open in the wire between the PCM (B33) and the fuel temperature sensor, then go to step 22.

16. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
17. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
18. Disconnect PCM connector B (44P).




19. Check for continuity between fuel temperature sensor 2P connector terminal No. 2 and PCM connector terminal B5.

Is there continuity?

YES - Go to step 27.

NO - Repair open in the wire between the PCM (B5) and the fuel temperature sensor, then go to step 22.

20. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
21. Replace the fuel temperature sensor.
22. Reconnect all connectors.
23. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
24. Reset the PCM with the HDS.
25. Do the PCM idle learn procedure.
26. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0183 indicated?

YES - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the fuel temperature sensor and the PCM, then go to step 1.

NO - Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.

27. Reconnect all connectors.
28. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM.
29. Check for Temporary DTCs or DTCs with the HDS.

Is DTC P0183 indicated?

YES - Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the fuel temperature sensor and the PCM. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If the PCM was substituted, go to step 1.

NO - If the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM.If any other Temporary DTCs or DTCs are indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
