DTC Detection Logic

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Infiniti M56. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
DTC No. Trouble diagnosis name (Trouble diagnosis content) DTC detecting condition Possible cause
P0181 FTT SENSOR [Fuel tank temperature (FTT) sensor circuit range/performance] A) Rationally incorrect voltage from the sensor is sent to ECM, compared with the voltage signals from engine coolant temperature sensor and intake air temperature sensor.
  • Harness or connectors (The FTT sensor circuit is open or shorted)
  • Fuel tank temperature sensor
  • Combination meter
B) The comparison result of signals transmitted to ECM from each temperature sensor (IAT sensor, ECT sensor, EOT sensor, and FTT sensor) shows that the voltage signal of the FTT sensor is higher/lower than that of other temperature sensors when the engine is started with its cold state.
  • Harness or connectors (The FTT sensor circuit is open or shorted)
  • Fuel tank temperature sensor
