WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2024 Lexus TX 550h+. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- DISCONNECT NO. 2 FUEL TANK VENT HOSE SUB-ASSEMBLY
*1 No. 2 Fuel Tank Vent Hose Sub-assembly *2 Fuel Vapor Containment Valve (Fuel Tank Solenoid with Hose Valve Assembly) *a Retainer *b Tab *c O-ring - - Pull Pull off Pinch - - - Disconnect the connector of the fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly).
- Lower the retainer to disengage it.NOTE:
Do not remove the retainer.
- Disconnect the No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly from the fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly).NOTE:
- Before disconnecting the No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly, check that the No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly and fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly) are not dirty. If they are dirty, clean them.
- The No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly seals the No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly and fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly) through the O-ring. Therefore, be careful not to damage the connecting part or allow foreign matter to adhere.
- Perform removal and installation work by hand. Do not use any tools.
- If the No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly and fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly) are stuck, pinch the fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly) and push and pull the No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly to free them apart, and then disconnect the No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly.
- Do not damage the No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly and fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly), or allow foreign matter to enter inside the fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly).
- Protect the disconnected No. 2 fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly and fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly) with a plastic bag.
- DISCONNECT FUEL TANK VENT HOSE SUB-ASSEMBLY
*1 Fuel Tank Vent Hose Sub-assembly *2 Fuel Vapor Containment Valve (Fuel Tank Solenoid with Hose Valve Assembly) *a Retainer *b O-ring Pinch Pull off - Disconnect the fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly from the fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly).NOTE:
- Before disconnecting the fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly, check that the fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly and fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly) are not dirty. If they are dirty, clean them.

- Do not damage the fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly and fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly), or allow foreign matter to enter inside the fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly).
- Protect the disconnected fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly and fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly) with a plastic bag.
1. Push the fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly firmly toward the fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly).
2. Pinch the fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly as shown in the illustration.
3. Pull off the fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly.
- Disconnect the fuel tank vent hose sub-assembly from the fuel vapor containment valve (fuel tank solenoid with hose valve assembly).
- REMOVE FUEL VAPOR CONTAINMENT VALVE (FUEL TANK SOLENOID WITH HOSE VALVE ASSEMBLY)
- REMOVE CHARCOAL CANISTER BRACKET SUB-ASSEMBLY
HINT:
Perform this procedure only when replacement of the charcoal canister bracket sub-assembly is necessary.
