  Q: What are the general checks for a fuel pump on Toyota Avalon and 2002 through 2008 Toyota Solara?

  A: First of all, general checks include ensuring there is enough fuel in the tank and verifying that the fuel pump is running by listening for a whirring noise. Ensure the pressure stays consistent and doesn't go below a specific limit. Also, you can remove the regulator as well as the pump. After testing, release all the pressure and undo the gauge.

  Q: How to check the fuel pump on Toyota Avalon and 1997 through 2001 Toyota Solara?

  A: Check the fuel system, make sure the fuel tank has enough fuel. Let someone turn the ignition switch to ON and listen for the fuel pump to switch on and pressurize the systems. If there's no response inspect the fuel pump's electrical circuit for any faults. When checking the fuel pump pressure it is important that you relieve the system pressure, disconnect the fuel filter outlet line, and attach a pressure gauge. While the ignition is on, the fuel pump should run for about two seconds and the pressure should be known. The pressure should remain steady during idle and within pressure limits. Next, inspect the fuses as well as the relays for the electrical circuit. Check the Fuel Pressure Regulator, filter, lines, and Fuel Injector. If the pressure is low, change the regulator and pump. Lastly, check the relays for any continuity and voltage.

  Q: How to remove and install a fuel pump/sending unit on 2002 through 2008 Toyota Solara and 2002 through 2006 Toyota Avalon?

  A: Relieve the fuel system pressure and remove the fuel tank cap. Disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Remove the rear seat from inside the passenger compartment. Remove the fuel pump/sending unit floor service hole cover. Disconnect the electrical connectors and the fuel line from the top of the fuel pump unit. Remove the fuel pump/sending unit retaining bolts. Carefully withdraw the fuel pump/fuel level sending unit assembly from the fuel tank. The components of the fuel pump assembly are modular and all attach to the main housing. Remove the plastic support on the bottom of the pump by releasing the clips with a screwdriver, then pull off the rubber isolator, the fuel sock filter clip, and the electrical connector. Withdraw the pump from the housing. Inspect the strainer for contamination. If it is dirty, replace it. Installation: Reassemble the fuel pump/sending unit in the reverse order of disassembly. Install the fuel pump/sending unit assembly in the fuel tank. Connect the fuel line and electrical connectors. The remainder of installation is the reverse of removal.

  Q: How to remove and install a fuel pump and Fuel Level Sensor from a Lexus ES350,Toyota Camry and 2007 through 2015 Toyota Avalon?

  A: For fuel pump removal, start by relieving the fuel system pressure and disconnecting the battery cable. Remove the rear seat cushion, then carefully pry up the fuel pump module/Fuel Level Sensor access cover. Disconnect the electrical connector(s) and fuel line from the top of the fuel pump unit, using a small screwdriver to release the yellow clip on the fuel line. Remove the retaining bolts of the fuel pump module/Fuel Level Sensor and carefully withdraw it from the Fuel Tank. If dealing with a Fuel Level Sensor, disconnect its electrical connector and slide it out after releasing the plastic locking tab. For fuel pump module removal on four-cylinder models (2011 and earlier), disconnect the fuel pump electrical connector from the fuel suction plate. Use needle-nose pliers to remove the spring E-clip, disengage suction support mounting clips, and separate the band bracket from the fuel filter assembly. Do not disconnect the fuel tube line between the suction plate and top plate to avoid damage. Remove the spring, disengage clips from the fuel suction support, and separate the support from the fuel pump. Pull out the fuel pump from the filter assembly, disconnect and remove the fuel pump electrical harness, disengage the clips securing the inlet strainer to the pump, and inspect the strainer for contamination. On V6 models and 2012 and later 4-cylinder models, pry the sub-tank from the assembly, remove the rubber cushion, disconnect the fuel pump electrical connector, disengage the fuel suction plate mounting clips, disconnect and remove the fuel pump electrical harness, pull the fuel pump out from the filter assembly, remove the clip securing the inlet strainer, and inspect it for contamination. For installation, reassemble the fuel pump module in reverse order and install the fuel pump/sending unit assembly in the tank, connecting the fuel line and electrical connector. Finish the installation as outlined in the removal process.

  Q: How to remove and install a fuel pump/fuel level sending unit assembly from a 1997 through 2001 Toyota Avalon and 1997 through 2001 Toyota Solara?

  A: To remove the fuel pump/Fuel Level Sensor from a vehicle, first, relieve the fuel system pressure and disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Then, remove the rear seat from inside the passenger compartment and the fuel pump/sending unit floor service hole cover. Disconnect the electrical connector and fuel line, and remove the retaining bolts before carefully withdrawing the assembly from the Fuel Tank. Disconnect the electrical connector from the fuel pump and remove the pump from the assembly, either by sliding the hose clamp up the hose or by removing the fuel-sending unit and fuel filler and prying up the housing snap-retainers in sequence. Finally, remove the clip securing the inlet strainer to the pump and inspect it for contamination before replacing it if necessary. To install the fuel pump/sending unit assembly, reassemble it in the reverse order of disassembly and connect the fuel line and electrical connector before completing the remainder of the installation in reverse.
