DTC P0180: Fuel Temperature Sensor A Circuit

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2005 Mercury Sable, 2005 Mercury Mountaineer, 2005 Mercury Monterey, 2005 Mercury Montego, and 2005 Mercury Mariner. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
P0180 - FUEL TEMPERATURE SENSOR A CIRCUIT

Description:  The comprehensive component monitor (CCM) monitors the fuel temperature sensor circuit to the powertrain control module (PCM) for low and high voltage. If voltage falls below or exceeds a calibrated limit and amount of time during testing, the test fails.
Possible Causes: 
  • Open or short in the harness
  • Low ambient temperature operation
  • Improper harness connection
  • Damaged fuel temperature sensor
Diagnostic Aids:  Verify the FRT PID value to determine an open or short.
