Ford P0182 OBD-II Trouble Code Definition:
P0182 Fuel Temperature Sensor Circuit Low Input
P0182 Ford OBD-II Trouble CodeDescription:
OBD Trouble Code P0182
Fuel Temperature Sensor A Circuit Low
What does the code mean? OBD-ii Code P0182 definition:
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..
