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