Toyota Solara Parts Questions & Answers
- Q: How should the TPMS Sensor sub-assembly be disposed of, particularly regarding the lithium battery on Toyota Solara?A: The tire pressure warning valve sub-assembly contains a lithium battery that requires correct disposal methods when discarding the sub-assembly. The disposal process for tire pressure warning valve sub-assembly starts with using a screwdriver tip to remove its back cover and reveal the battery and base board under resin. Detach the two battery terminals connected to the base board while removing the battery by carefully cutting these connections. Keep on record that the battery and base board surface contains silicon.
- Q: How to clean the radiator assembly on Toyota Solara?A: The cleaning process for vehicle radiator components starts with inspecting the fins for clogs before using water or steam cleaning tools to remove blockages followed by compressed air drying while keeping proper steam cleaner distance. A screwdriver or pliers can be used to restore bent fins before you should withhold water from contacting electronic parts.
- Q: How to install the luggage compartment door Emblems on Toyota Solara?A: A proper installation of luggage compartment door name plates begins with heating the vehicle body and name plate using a heat light but avoiding excessive heat. First remove double-sided tape from the vehicle body surface and clean away adhesive residue through use of cleaner. Before restating an existing name plate apply heat to it to remove old taped material and apply fresh double-sided tape on its surface. Vehicle body and name plate heating precedes the removal of release paper from the name plate while paying attention to avoid letting foreign material touch the exposed adhesive before ultimately placing the name plate. The installation of all luggage compartment door name plates like the SE, SLE and SPORT labels uses this procedure on No. 7, No. 3 and No. 2 compartments.
- Q: How to install the alternator assembly on Toyota Solara?A: The 2AZ-FE charging system generator installation starts with ensuring that the crankshaft position sensor wire harness gets secured to the back of the timing chain cover rib using wire harness clamp bracket. Use 2 bolts for the generator assembly installation where Bolt A reaches 21 Nm (215 kgf-cm, 15 ft-lbf) torque range and Bolt B reaches 52 Nm (530 kgf-cm, 38 ft-lbf). Fasten the generator wire to terminal B with a 9.8 Nm (100 kgf-cm) torque nut then install the clamp bracket by tightening its bolt to 8.4 Nm (86 kgf-cm). Place the clamp onto the generator while connecting the generator connector to its terminal. The next step includes the installation of two parts: the fan and generator V belt in addition to the No. 2 engine mounting bracket RH and the No. 2 engine mounting stay RH followed by the engine moving control rod with bracket. Proceed with the installation of the front wheel to the right-hand side then connect the cable to the negative battery terminal before conducting the initialization process.
