2AR-FE FUEL: FUEL SYSTEM: ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

1. CHECK FUEL PUMP OPERATION

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

NOTICE:
Do not start the engine.

(c) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the Fuel Pump Speed.

(d) Touch the fuel hose in the engine compartment to check the fuel flow, and you will be able to hear the sound of the fuel pump.

(e) Stop the fuel pump.

If there is no fuel flow, the fuel pump may not operate. Check the fuel pump circuit Inspection.

2. CHECK FUEL PRESSURE

(a) Using a voltmeter, measure the battery voltage.

Standard voltage:

11 to 14 V

(b) Discharge the fuel system pressure Removal.

(c) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

NOTICE:
After turning the ignition switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the battery terminal notice before proceeding with work Service Precautions.

09268-41250





(f) Wipe up any gasoline.

(g) Reconnect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

(h) Start the engine.

(i) Measure the fuel pressure at idle.

Fuel pressure:

304 to 343 kPa (3.1 to 3.5 kgf/cm2, 44 to 50 psi)

If the pressure is not as specified, check the fuel pump and injectors.

(j) After checking the fuel pressure, disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and carefully remove SST and the fuel tube connector to prevent fuel from spilling.
