Toyota Avalon Parts Questions & Answers

• Emblem
  75311-AC020
  Q: How to remove the body emblem on Toyota Avalon?

  A: Heat the body of the vehicle along with its name plate using a heat light while avoiding excessive temperature levels on both components. Protective tape should be applied first on the back door name plate before you use a moulding remover to separate the double-sided tape and extract the plate with extreme caution towards the vehicle body. The name plate operation for the No. 7 luggage compartment door requires the use of protective tape as well as a moulding remover to remove double-sided tape from all components without harming the vehicle body.
• Radiator Assembly
  16410-AZ015
  Q: How to remove the radiator on Toyota Avalon?

  A: Start by draining engine coolant after separating the battery together with air cleaner inlets for number 1 and number 2 positions. Start by disconnecting the radiator reserve tank hose from the radiator assembly and proceed to untie the radiator hose inlet and outlet. In the process of removing the radiator you must disconnect both oil cooler inlet tube No.1 and oil cooler outlet tube No.1 from the radiator assembly. The hood lock assembly requires removal of its hood lock nut cap to extract three bolts which separate it from the radiator support upper before the removal of five securing bolts on the radiator support upper. The fan motor connector must be detached before you remove the 4 bolts that separate the condenser assembly from the radiator assembly so you can extract the radiator assembly from the body. The radiator assembly requires removal of its 2 radiator support cushions and the 2 radiator support lowers. Disassemble the three snap fits to lift the fan assembly that contains the motor from the radiator.
• TPMS Sensor
  42607-06012
  Q: How should the TPMS Sensor and transmitter be disposed of correctly on Toyota Avalon?

  A: A lithium battery powers the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter so it must be safely removed before proper disposal of the device takes place. When disposing of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter users should use a screwdriver tip to remove the back cover until they expose the battery and base board which are covered by resin. The removal of the battery requires cutting both battery terminals which attach to the base board while keeping in mind that the battery and circuit board have silicone covering them.
• Reman Alternator

  Q: How to overhaul the alternator on Toyota Avalon?

  A: Begin the alternator overhaul process by eliminating the generator with clutch pulley while using a screwdriver to detach the generator pulley cap and inserting SST (A) and (B) equipped with SST 09820-63020 to position the rotor shaft onto SST (A) before securing it in a vise. Install the generator using the SST while you rotate SST (B) clockwise to loosen the generator pulley thus removing both components from SST and the rotor shaft. Afterward you should remove 3 nuts prior to removing the generator rear end cover along with the terminal insulator. To access the generator brush holder assembly the technician must remove the two screws before they can take off the generator coil assembly through four bolts with SST 09950-40011 (09951-04020, 09952-04010, 09953-04020, 09954-04010, 09955-04071, 09957-04010, 09958-04011) tool followed by the removal of the generator washer. Remove all parts from the generator rotor assembly. Check that the clutch pulley of the generator turns counterclockwise only without experiencing clockwise rotation. Use vernier calipers to measure the exposed brush length of the generator brush holder assembly and verify that the length satisfies 10.5 mm (0.413 in.) and exceeds 4.5 mm (0.177 in.) and if not replace with a new part. DEL will inspect the generator rotor assembly bearing for irregularities or wear and will replace it if essential and will test the slip ring resistance at 20 degrees Celsius with an ohmmeter to check it stays between 2.3 to 2.7 Ohms; any results failing will require replacement. To check for short circuits perform two tests: measure the 1 MOhm or higher resistance between each slip ring and rotor and determine the slip ring diameter falls between 14.2 to 14.4 mm (0.559 to 0.567 in.) with a minimum of 14.0 mm (0.551 in.). Replacement is needed if minimums are not met. Check for wear or roughness on the drive end frame bearing of the generator and replace it as needed. The bearing removal process for the generator drive end frame requires the removal of bearing retainer screws and SST utility with 09950-60010 (09951-00250) and 09950-70010 (09951-07100) for tapping it out using an SST hammer. To put in a new generator drive end frame bearing, begin by inserting it with SST 09950-60010 (09951-00470) and 09950-70010 (09951-07100) while using a press tool. Finish with bearing retainer installation through the use of 4 screws that should be torqued to 2.3 N.m (23 kgf.cm, 20 in.lbf). Slowly push the generator coil assembly into the drive end frame structure with a deep 21 mm socket wrench which should be activated by a press tool to secure it through four bolt screws torqued up to 5.8 N.m (59 kgf.cm, 51 in.lbf). The generator brush holder assembly requires two brush compressions followed by a 1.0 mm (0.039 in.) pin insertion into the generator brush holder hole. The next step is to install both screws at 1.8 N.m (18 kgf.cm, 16 in.lbf) while keeping the pin in position until it is removed. The terminal insulator requires proper orientation before you install it and then you can add the rear end cover with the three nuts torqued to 4.6 N.m (47 kgf.cm, 41 in.lbf). Utilize SST (A) and (B) for this step while positioning SST (A) in the vise to start installation of the generator on the SST. Rotate SST (B) clockwise until the generator pulley reaches 87 N.m (891 kgf.cm or 64 ft.lbf) using a torque wrench set at 380 mm (14.96 in.). After generator removal from the SST inspections must demonstrate smooth generator pulley rotation and the new generator pulley cap must be installed.
