• Q: How to replace the water pump on 2002 Toyota Camry?

  A: Begin the water pump replacement operation by draining coolant liquid while using Special Service Tool: 09249-63010 to remove the fan and generator V belt. First disconnect the crankshaft position sensor wire harness clamp and afterward use Special Service Tool: 09960-10010 (09962-01000, 09963-00700) to remove 4 bolts and the pump pulley before taking off the generator assembly. The water pump assembly removal process requires removal of 4 bolts and 2 nuts and the bracket and the water pump itself. Installation of the water pump requires removing all FIPG debris from the contact surfaces before sealing it with packing material (Part No. 08826-00080 or equivalent, diagram provided) while maintaining a clean contact surface and completing the installation process within 5 minutes then postponing engine oil addition for 2 hours. Put together the water pump with its bracket through 4 bolts and 2 nuts while applying torque to 9.0 Nm (92 kgf-cm, 80 inch lbs.) and reattach the crankshaft position sensor wire harness clamp. Install the water pump pulley with Special Service Tool: 09960-10010 (09962-01000, 09963-00700) by using 4 bolts while torquing them to 26 Nm (265 kgf-cm, 19 ft. lbs.). You must reinstall the generator assembly and the fan and generator V belt with Special Service Tool: 09249-63010. The last step includes coolant addition while checking for possible engine coolant leakages.
