If you do not hear the typical whine of the fuel pump coming from under the rear seat when turning on the ignition and the car does not start, it is very likely that the motor of the submerged pump in the tank has burned out: fortunately, it is possible to purchase an aftermarket repair kit that includes only the motor.

Obviously, you need to extract the pump from the tank: first, lift the rear seat cushion, remove the sound-absorbing cover and the subframe.

Then unscrew the fixing screws of the pump cover flange, disconnect the power connector and the outlet and return pipes. Finally, remove the nuts securing the pump to the tank and extract it complete with the float: detach the filter from the pump's intake and proceed with the motor replacement.

Finally, reinstall the pump in the tank.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space.
