P0181 FTT SENSOR
P0181 FTT SENSOR
Description INFOID:0000000004780139
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 the rmistor which is sensitive to the
change in temperature. The electric al resistance of the thermistor
decreases as temperature increases.

*: These data are reference values and are measured between ECM terminal 43 (Fuel tank temperature sensor) and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output volt age. Doing so may result in damage to the ECM's transis-
tor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

DTC Logic " .
If the cooling fan or another component in the coo ling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnorma lly high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be su re to replace the coolant. Refer to CO-11, " Changing Engine
Coolant " . Also, replace the engine oil. Refer to
LU-8, " Draining " and
LU-8, " Refilling " .
1. Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure to
use coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA-15, " Anti-freeze Coolant Mixture Ratio " .
2. After refilling coolant, run engine to en sure that no water-flow noise is emitted.

fail-safe mode Remarks
Malfunction indicator
lamp circuit Engine speed will not rise
more than 2,500 rpm due to
the fuel cut When there is an open circuit on MIL circuit, the ECM cannot warn the driver by
lighting up MIL when there is malfunction on engine control system.
Therefore, when electrical controlled throttle and part of ECM related diagnoses
are continuously detected as NG for 5 trips, ECM warns the driver that engine
control system malfunctions and MIL circuit is open by means of operating fail-
safe function.
The fail-safe function also operates when above diagnoses except MIL circuit
are detected and demands the driver to repair the malfunction. DTC No. Detected items Engine operating condition in fail-safe mode

P2135 Throttle position sensor The ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator in regulating the throttle opening in
order for the idle position to be within +10 degrees.
The ECM regulates the opening speed of the throttle valve to be slower than the normal
condition.
So, the acceleration will be poor.
P0643 Sensor power supply ECM stops the electric throttle control actuator control, throttle valve is maintained at a fixed opening (approx. 5 degrees) by the return spring.
P0605 ECM (When ECM calculation function is malfunctioning:) ECM stops the electric throttle control actuator control, throttle valve is maintained at a
fixed opening (approx. 5 degrees) by the return spring.
P1805 Brake switch ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator by regulating the throttle opening to a small range.
Therefore, acceleration will be poor.
