Fuel Temperature Sensor: Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Subaru Tribeca. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Check that the fuel temperature sensor has no deformation, cracks or other damages.
  2. Check the resistance between the fuel temperature sensor terminals.
CAUTION: When inspecting the resistance, check the circuit tester specification and be careful not to turn on electricity 3 V or more to prevent damaging the fuel temperature sensor.
