CAUTION:
 When removing water pump assembly, be careful not to get engine coolant on drive belts.
 Water pump cannot be disassembled and should be replaced as a unit.
 After installing water pump, co nnect hose and clamp securely, then check for leakage using the radi-
ator cap tester (commercial service tool) and the radiator cap tester adapter (commercial service
tool).
REMOVAL
1. Drain engine coolant from drain plugs on radiator and cylinder block. Refer to CO-8, "Draining" and EM-
103, "Setting".
CAUTION:
 Perform this step when engine is cold.
 Never spill engine coolant on drive belt.
2. Remove front under cover with power tool. Refer to EXT-25, "
Exploded View".
3. Remove fan shroud (lower). Refer to CO-13, "
Exploded View".
4. Move reservoir tank to the position with out the hindrance for work. Refer to CO-13, "
Exploded View".
5. Remove radiator core support cover. Refer to DLK-220, "
Exploded View".
6. Remove fan shroud (upper). Refer to CO-13, "
Exploded View".
7. Remove drive belt. Refer to EM-20, "
Exploded View".
8. Remove cooling fan, fan coupling, cooling fan pulley and bracket. Refer to CO-16, "
Exploded View"
9. Remove radiator hose (upper). Refer to CO-13, "Exploded View".

11. Remove water pump. Refer to
CO-18, "Exploded View".
 Engine coolant will leak from cylinder block, so have a receptacle ready under vehicle.
CAUTION:
 Handle the water pump vane so that it does not contact any other parts.
 Never disassemble water pump.
INSTALLATION
Install in the reverse order of removal.
InspectionINFOID:0000000006289671
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
 Visually check that there is no significant dirt or rusting on water pump body and vane (A).
 Check there is no slack in vane shaft, and that it turns smoothly when rotated by hand.
 If anything is found, replace water pump.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
 Check that the reservoir tank cap is tightened.
 Check for leakage of engine coolant using the radiator cap tester adapter (commercial service tool) and the
radiator cap tester (commercial service tool). Refer to CO-8, "
Inspection".
 Start and warm up the engine. Visually check that there is no leakage of engine coolant.

NOTE:

If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC UXXXX, perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC UXXXX.
 If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC P0607, perfo rm the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0607. Refer to
EC-378, "
DTC Logic".
 If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC P0527, perfo rm the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0527. Refer to
EC-367, "
DTC Logic".
If the cooling fan or any of other components in the cooling system has a malfunction, engine coolant temper-
ature increases.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnorma lly high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, al ways replace the coolant. Refer to CO-8, "
Draining" and CO-9,
"Refilling". Also, replace the engine oil. Refer to LU-8, "Draining" and LU-8, "Refilling".
1. Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Always use
coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA-11, "
Anti-Freeze Coolant Mixture Ratio".
2. After refilling coolant, run engine to en sure that no water-flow noise is emitted.
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK
Perform component function check. Refer to EC-400, "
Component Function Check".
NOTE:
Use component function check to check the overall functi on of the cooling fan. During this check, a DTC might
not be confirmed.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> Go to EC-401, "
Diagnosis Procedure".

WARNING:
Never remove the reservoir tank cap when the engi ne is hot. Serious burns could be caused by high
pressure fluid escaping from the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap. Carefully remove the cap by turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up
pressure to escape. Then turn the cap all the way off.
