Relieve fuel system pressure. Disconnect cable from negative battery terminal. Drain fuel tank to under 5/8-full. Remove rear seat cushion. Pull back foam pad covering fuel pump/fuel level sensor module. Pull off plastic access cover. Disconnect electrical connector from terminal on top of fuel pump/fuel level sensor module. Clean area surrounding mounting flange. Tap lock-ring counterclockwise with hammer and brass drift. Note square tab on edge of mounting flange. Disconnect two electrical connectors for fuel level sensors and fuel pump. Disconnect fuel supply line fitting from outlet pipe. Disconnect two return lines from fuel pump module. Lift up mounting flange and remove fuel filter/fuel pressure regulator/fuel level sensor module.

Start by removing the module. Carefully cut the wiring harness clip and disengage the fuel level sensor wires from the clip. Then, loosen the two retaining clips and pull the fuel level sensor out of the fuel pump module. After installation, turn the ignition switch to On to activate the fuel pump and build up fuel pressure in the fuel lines.

If the fuel pump does not come on, check the fuel pump fuse and relay, as well as the wiring.

To lift the fuel pump/fuel level sensor module for removal:Lift up the mounting flange for the module.Disconnect the two electrical connectors for the fuel level sensors and the fuel pump.If the lower half of the module is still submerged in gasoline, drain the remaining fuel from the left fuel tank.

The installation is the reverse of removal, and after installation, the fuel system is primed by turning the ignition switch to On without operating the starter.

Begin by removing the module. Detach the fuel level sensor from the fuel filter module by spreading the four locking tangs and pulling off the sensor. Cut the two wire ties that secure the wiring to the fuel return lines and disconnect the ground wires from the fuel filter module. Remove the fuel level sensor. If you're only replacing the fuel pressure regulator, you can stop here. To remove the fuel pressure regulator from the fuel filter module, pry off the retaining clip. Inspect the condition of the fuel pressure regulator O-rings. If you're replacing the fuel filter module, remove the ground ring from the recess for the fuel pressure regulator. When installing the ground ring in the new fuel filter module, ensure that the ground ring terminal is seated correctly in the notch. After installation, turn the ignition switch to On to activate the fuel pump and check for fuel leakage.

Remove the module and detach the fuel level sensor. Cut the wire ties and disconnect the ground wires. Remove the fuel level sensor. If you're only replacing the fuel pressure regulator, you're done. To remove the regulator from the fuel filter module, pull out the retaining clip. Check the condition of the regulator's O-rings. If you're replacing the fuel filter module, remove the ground ring and install it correctly in the new module. Finally, installation is the reverse of removal.

Start by removing the module. Then, carefully cut the wiring harness clip and disconnect the fuel level sensor wires. Loosen the two retaining clips and pull out the fuel level sensor. You can replace either the fuel level sensor unit or the fuel pump module.

The fuel pump/fuel level sensor module is located in the left compartment of the fuel tank.
