Removing the Fuel Pump and Float on a Volvo S60

Model: Volvo S60 MK 1 - Years 2000-2009
Part: Fuel pump

To remove the float and the submersible pump on this vehicle, first, remove the rear seat cushion, under which is the access to the fuel tank where the submersible pump is located. The cover is held in place by 4 screws that need to be removed, and underneath, the pump itself is secured with a plastic ring that must be unscrewed with a suitable tool shown in the video. Simply disconnect the pump's power connector and the related wires. During reassembly, secure the pump with a cable to avoid dropping it before positioning it.
