P0179
Fuel Composition Sensor Circuit High Input
DTC P0179, sometimes indicated as P017900 is an OBD diagnostic trouble code indicating a generic fault with the vehicle powertrain (i.e. engine and gearbox). This code identifies an error with the air/fuel mixture causing fuel composition sensor circuit high input.
This code indicates that the fuel composition sensor is reporting a high voltage input. This could be caused by a number of things, including a bad sensor, a short in the wiring, or a problem with the fuel composition module.
If you have this code, first check the wiring for any shorts or damage. If everything looks okay, then replace the fuel composition sensor.
