Title: A25A-FKS (FUEL): FUEL SYSTEM: ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION; 2019 - 2024 MY RAV4 [11/2018 -        ]

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK FUEL PUMP OPERATION AND INSPECT FOR FUEL LEAK

(a) Check fuel pump operation.

(1) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

NOTICE:

Do not start the engine.

(3) Turn the Techstream on.

(4) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Activate the Circuit Relay.

Powertrain > Engine > Active Test

Tester Display

Activate the Circuit Relay

(5) Check for pressure in the fuel tube sub-assembly from the fuel line. Check that sounds of fuel flowing from the fuel tank assembly can be heard. If no sounds can be heard, check the relay, fuel pump, ECM and wiring connectors.

(b) Inspect for fuel leaks.

(1) Check that there are no fuel leaks from the fuel system after doing any maintenance or repairs. If there is a fuel leak, repair or replace parts as necessary.

(c) Turn the ignition switch off.

(d) Disconnect the Techstream from the DLC3.

2. CHECK FUEL PRESSURE

(a) Discharge fuel system pressure.

(i) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(j) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

NOTICE:

Do not start the engine.

(k) Turn the Techstream on.

(l) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Activate the Circuit Relay.

Powertrain > Engine > Active Test

Activate the Circuit Relay

(m) Measure the fuel pressure.

Standard fuel pressure:

196 to 833 kPa (2.0 to 8.5 kgf/cm2, 28 to 121 psi)

  • If the fuel pressure is less than the standard, check the fuel hoses and their connections, fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel main valve assembly.
  • If the result is not as specified, replace the fuel main valve assembly.

(n) Disconnect the Techstream from the DLC3.

(o) Start the engine.

(p) Measure the fuel pressure at idle.

Standard fuel pressure:

196 to 833 kPa (2.0 to 8.5 kgf/cm2, 28 to 121 psi)

HINT:

Refer to Standard Idle Speed.
