Toyota FJ Cruiser Parts Questions & Answers

  • Q: How to reassemble the alternator on Toyota FJ Cruiser?
    A: First install the generator drive end frame bearing with Special Service Tool 09950-60010 using 4 screws and press tool 09951-07100. Tighten the screws to 2.6 Nm (27 kgf-cm, 23 in-lbf). Position the drive end frame on the rotor before adding the rotor and washer mounting parts. Insert the generator coil using Special Service Tool 09285-76010 and put on 4 bolts before tightening them to 5.8 Nm (59 kgf-cm, 51 in-lbf). Install 2 generator brush holders with screws at 1.8 Nm (18 kgf-cm, 16 in-lbf) force. Fasten the three terminal insulator nuts and generator rear end cover with 4.6 Nm torque strength. Secure the pulley generator onto the rotor shaft first using your hand then engage Special Service Tool 1-A with a torque wrench to tighten Special Service Tool 1-B clockwise to 39 Nm (400 kgf-cm, 29 ft-lbf) until both tools lock onto the rotor shaft. Attach Special Service Tool 1-A and B to Special Service Tool 2 which you clamp in a vice and then fasten the pulley nut. Use Special Service Tools 1-A and B to tighten the generator pulley nut gradually to 111 Nm (1132 kgf-cm, 82 ft-lbf) while turning Tool 1-A. Take off the generator from Tool 2 then turn Tool 1-B and remove Tools 1-A and 1-B. Greatly rotate the pulley to see if it moves easily.
  • Q: How to remove the Emblem from the back door on Toyota FJ Cruiser?
    A: First cover back door panel No. 1 with tape before heating the name plate surface to 40 to 60 degrees Celsius (104 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit) using an infrared light during a 1 to 2-minute period while maintaining safety from burns. The gasket scraper with taped tip needs to ease off adhesive layers from the No. 1 back door name plate before the protective tape can be removed next. Properly prepare other name plates starting with the No. 2 back door and ending with the rear name plate by applying tape then heating them with infrared light followed by removal using the wrapped gasket scraper for safety.
  • Q: How to install the water pump assembly and related components on Toyota FJ Cruiser?
    A: The installation starts with placing a new gasket followed by fastening the water pump with 17 bolts while tightening Bolt A to 9.0 Nm (92 kgf-cm, 80 in-lbf) and Bolt B to 23 Nm (235 kgf-cm, 17 ft-lbf). You must install the vane pump assembly after which you can put on the V-ribbed belt tensioner assembly. After installing the cooler compressor assembly move to the installation of the No. 2 idler pulley sub-assembly. The procedure for water inlet installation begins with placing a new O-ring on the water outlet pipe before adding a new gasket to the water pump. Soapy water should be applied to the O-ring before tightening the water inlet with five bolts at 9.0 Nm (92 kgf-cm, 80 in-lbf). Join both radiator hoses along with the five water by-pass tubes. Installation of the generator must be followed by the air cleaner then the fan assembly. Finish the procedure by attaching the cable to the negative terminal using 3.9 Nm (40 kgf-cm, 35 in-lbf) torque before installing the V-bank cover.
  • Q: How should the TPMS Sensor and transmitter be disposed of, particularly regarding the lithium battery on Toyota FJ Cruiser?
    A: Users need to remove the lithium battery from their tire pressure warning valve and transmitter before correct disposal.

Exposure of the battery and base board composed of silicone resin material becomes possible by removing the battery and clipping the two terminals between the battery and base board.
