Caution: Fuel Vapors can collect while servicing fuel system parts in enclosed areas such as a trunk. To reduce the risk of fire and increased exposure to vapors:

Notice: Clean all of the following areas before performing any disconnections in order to avoid possible contamination in the system:

1. Relieve the fuel system fuel pressure. Refer to the Fuel Pressure Relief .
2. Remove the spare tire cover, the jack, and the spare tire.
3. Remove the rear compartment trim panel (1). Refer to Rear Compartment Trim Panel Replacement in Instrument Panel and Console.



4. Remove the bolts from the fuel sender access panel.



5. Disconnect the fuel tank pressure sensor (1) electrical sensor connector.
6. Remove the fuel tank pressure sensor clip.
7. Remove the fuel tank pressure sensor (1) from the modular fuel sender.

1. Install the new fuel tank pressure sensor (1) on to the modular fuel sender.
2. Connect the fuel tank pressure sensor (1) electrical sensor connector to the fuel tank pressure sensor.
3. Reinstall the fuel tank pressure sensor clip.



4. Install the fuel sender access panel (2) to the chassis.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.




5. Install the fuel sender access panel bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 2 N·m (18 lb in).




6. Install the rear compartment floor trim (1). Refer to Rear Compartment Trim Panel Replacement in Instrument Panel and Console.
7. Install the spare tire cover, the jack, and the spare tire.
8. Tighten the fuel tank filler pipe cap.

Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.

9. Connect the negative battery cable. Refer to Battery Negative Cable Disconnection and Connection in Engine Electrical.



10. Install the intake manifold sight shield (1) to the engine.
11. Install the intake manifold sight shield nuts (2).

Tighten
Tighten the nuts to 3 N·m (27 lb in).

12. Install the rear seat cushion. Refer to Rear Seat Cushion Replacement in Seats.
