Today, we will go through the steps to remove and replace the fuel pump on a Toyota Highlander. First, open the rear doors and start by removing the rear seat by pulling it upwards; then unscrew the fastening screws of the backrests using a socket wrench with an extension, allowing access to the fuel pump located underneath, as shown in the video.

At this point, unscrew the pump collar and disconnect the fuel line and the electrical connector; all that remains is to remove the pump from the tank and install the new one!
