I am getting this diag code for the Fuel temperature Sensor High. (P0183)

I had a few questions as I look at diagrams. It looks like the fuel level is on the driver side and I know the pump is on the passenger side. Is the fuel temp with the sender on the driver side. I know some pics are universal but it looks like there is a level unit on both sides??

Some history on the problem:

On Thursday evening I did the deadly sweeping right turn with about 2.5 gallons of fuel. Car sputtered and died. I tried starting again and it would kind sputter and run rough. I pushed the car a block to my house and put in a gallon of fuel.

The car started up fine. I took it and filled it up. 14 gallons. (so I know there was some in there). I drove it before and after work and at lunch on Friday. And back and forth to work on Saturday. (I did my transmission service, drain and fill). (I work at a Chevy Dealership).

Sunday morning when I got into the car is when I had the light on. Runs as normal. I clear it and it comes back after the next start up. I put 100 miles since the last fill up so I decided to fill it up again and see if it made a difference (4 gallons) Light still came on.

I was going to pull out the two units and check the condition of them and try to locate which side the temp sensor is on. I hope to just change that but I know Nissan probably sells it as a full unit. If anyone can save me some time or had this issue on which side needs to be replaced. Thank you!
