Nissan Maxima Service and Repair Manual / Engine / Engine control system / DTC/circuit diagnosis / P0182, P0183 FTT sensor

Description

Nissan Maxima. 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.
