P0180 - FUEL TEMPERATURE SENSOR

1.9 JTD 8v, 1.9 JTD 16v, 2.4 JTD 20v

The diagnostic equipment signals: Error P0180 (Fuel temperature sensor)

This error detects if the voltage at the junction unit inlet (Pin 11) is more than 4.96 V (positive short circuit) (detail "short circuit to +Vbatt") or if it less than 0.23 V (short circuit to earth or break in the circuit) (detail "short circuit to earth or open circuit) for at least 0.3 secs. In this case the control unit takes 50 °C as the replacement value.
