Fuel PDE temp sensor, short circuit to ground
â–¶ How to fix
Check the wiring harness / connector for the fuel temperature sensor (T118). - Check that the fuel temperature sensor gives a reasonable value - Replace the fuel temperature sensor
What you'll see
No driver-visible symptom recorded.
System reaction
"Engine coolant temperature" is used instead as a replacement. The delivered engine power/torque will be less accurate.
Diagnostic depth
Detection
EMS indicates an short circuit to ground on the pins connected to the fuel temperature sensor (T118)
Possible cause
Fuel temperature sensor (T118) - short circuit to ground Faulty fuel temperature sensor (T118)
