STEP 2. Check harness connector D-18 at the fuel tank 
temperature sensor for damage.

Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 3. Check the fuel tank temperature sensor.

(1) Disconnect the fuel tank temperature sensor connector 

D-18.

(2) Measure the resistance between terminal No. 1 and No. 3 

of the fuel tank temperature sensor.

Standard value:

0.5 

− 12.0 kΩ

Q: Is the measured resistance between 0.5 and 12.0 k

Ω?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Replace the fuel tank temperature sensor. Then go to 

Step 12.

STEP 4. Check the continuity at fuel tank temperature 
sensor harness side connector D-18.

(1) Disconnect the connector D-18 and measure at the harness 

side.

(2) Check for the continuity between terminal No. 1 and 

ground.

• Should be less than 2 ohms.

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO :  Repair harness wire between fuel tank temperature 

sensor connector D-18 (terminal No. 1) and ground 
because of open circuit or harness damage. Then go 
to Step 12.

STEP 5. Measure the sensor supply voltage at fuel tank 
temperature sensor harness side connector D-18.

(1) Disconnect the connector D-18 and measure at the harness 

side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 3 and ground.

• Voltage should be between 4.5 and 4.9 volts

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage between 4.5 and 4.9 volts?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Go to Step 10.

STEP 6. Measure the sensor supply voltage at PCM 
connector B-20 by using power plant ECU check harness 
special tool MB991923.

(1) Disconnect the all PCM connectors and connect power 

plant ECU check harness special tool MB991923 between 
the separated connectors.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 41 and ground.

• When fuel tank temperature is 0°C (32°F), voltage 

should be between  2.7 and 3.1 volts.

• When fuel tank temperature is 20°C (68°F), voltage 

should be between 2.1 and 2.5 volts.

• When fuel tank temperature is 40°C (104°F), voltage 

should be between 1.6 and 2.0 volts.

• When fuel tank temperature is 80°C (176°F), voltage 

should be between 0.8 and 1.2 volts.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage normal?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO :  Go to Step 8.

STEP 7. Check harness connector B-20 at PCM for 
damage.

Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES :  Check harness connector C-25 at intermediate 

connector for damage, and repair or replace as 
required. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector 
Inspection 

P.00E-2

. If intermediate connector is in 

good condition, repair harness wire between fuel tank 
temperature sensor connector D-18 (terminal No. 3) 
and PCM connector B-20 (terminal No. 41) because 
of open circuit. Then go to Step 12.

NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.
