Circuit/System Description

The fuel temperature sensor is a thermistor. The engine control module (ECM) supplies the fuel temperature sensor a bias voltage of 5 volts on the signal circuit and also provides a low reference circuit to the sensor. When the fuel temperature sensor is cold, the resistance is high. The fuel temperature sensor signal voltage remains near the bias voltage cold and decreases as the sensor warms. The ECM monitors the fuel temperature sensor signal circuit in order to calculate the temperature of the fuel entering the engine.
