Replacing the float in a Toyota Corolla is very simple. Let's see how to proceed in this tutorial.

This operation involves removing the fuel pump as the two elements are directly connected. Start by disconnecting the negative terminal of the battery to work safely.

Next, remove the rear seat and open the central cap. Then disconnect both the power connector and the fuel line, undo all the screws around the perimeter, and extract the pump from the tank. At this point, you can replace the float and reassemble everything by following the reverse procedure.
