Fuel Delivery and Air Induction: Testing and Inspection
AFTER SERVICE PRECAUTION [LF, L5]
WARNING:
- Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and damage. When installing the fuel hose, perform "Fuel Leakage Inspection" described below.
- A person charged with static electricity could cause a fire or explosion, resulting in death or serious injury. Before performing work on the fuel system, discharge static electricity by touching the vehicle body.
Fuel Leakage Inspection
CAUTION:
- Connecting to the wrong check connector terminal may cause a malfunction. Carefully connect only to the specified terminal.
Using M-MDS
1. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
2. Switch the ignition to ON.
3. Using the simulation function "FP", start the fuel pump. On-Board Diagnostic Test
4. Verify that there is no fuel leakage from the pressurized parts.
Standard
- There shall be no leakage after 5 min.
5. In the case of fuel leakage, replace the following components and then do the recheck by the fuel leakage checking procedure.
- If there is leakage, replace the fuel hoses and clips.
- If there is damage on the seal on the fuel pipe side, replace the fuel pipe.
Without using M-MDS
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the fuel pump relay.
CAUTION:
- Short the specified terminals because shorting the wrong terminal of the relay and fuse block may cause malfunctions.
3. Using a jumper wire, short fuel pump relay terminals C and D in the relay and fuse block.
4. Connect the negative battery cable and operate the fuel pump.
5. Verify that there is no fuel leakage from the pressurized parts.
Standard
- There shall be no leakage after 5 min.
6. In the case of fuel leakage, replace the following components and then do the recheck by the fuel leakage checking procedure.
- If there is leakage, replace the fuel hoses and clips.
- If there is damage on the seal on the fuel pipe side, replace the fuel pipe.
