Pinpoint Test L : DTCS P182B, P182C, P182D: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

Refer to OEM WIRING DIAGRAMS (EXCEPT ELECTRIC) for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

This temperature sensor is located in the power transfer unit (PTU). It is a temperature-sensitive device called a thermistor. The resistance value of the sensor varies with temperature change. The PCM monitors the voltage across the power transfer unit (PTU) fluid temperature sensor to determine the temperature of the PTU fluid temperature.

DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

DTC Description Fault Trigger Conditions
P182B Transfer Case Fluid Temperature Sensor Circuit Range/Performance This DTC sets when the PCM detects an open, a short to ground or voltage on the sensor circuit.
P182C Transfer Case Fluid Temperature Sensor Circuit Low This DTC sets when the PCM detects a short to ground an open, or low voltage on the sensor circuit.
P182D Transfer Case Fluid Temperature Sensor Circuit High This DTC sets when the PCM detects the sensor circuit voltage is high.
