Fuel Pressure Sensor -- Removal


CAUTION:
Do not allow fuel to spray when removing the pipe between the high pressure side fuel pump and the fuel injector. The fuel in the pipe is highly pressurized.


1. DISCHARGE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE
CAUTION:
  1. Do not disconnect any part of the fuel system until you have discharged the fuel system pressure.
  2. Even after discharging the fuel pressure, place a shop rag over fittings as you separate them to reduce the risk of fuel spray on yourself or in the engine compartment.

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

    NOTICE:
    Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.
