    • Install the rear No. 3 floor board sub-assembly.
    • Install the rear No. 4 floor board sub-assembly.
  4. FIRST LEAK CHECK 

    HINT: 

    • When replacing or removing and installing any high pressure hydrogen system component (hydrogen inlet receptacle assembly, hydrogen tank tube joint assembly, hydrogen tank assembly, hydrogen supply regulator, or hydrogen tank tube), perform the primary leak inspection.
    • The primary leak inspection is performed using nitrogen gas.
    • When performing the primary leak inspection, remove the floor covers and rear wheel house liner so that the high pressure and medium pressure hydrogen system components and high pressure and medium pressure hydrogen system pipes are visible during inspection.
    WARNING:
    • When performing the primary leak inspection, do not perform procedures without wearing protective glasses and gloves.
    • High pressure nitrogen gas could cause a serious accident.

    NOTE:

    After performing the primary leak inspection and confirming that there are no leaks, perform secondary leak inspection.

    Pre-procedure1

    • Using an 8 mm socket hexagon wrench, apply the specified tightening torque to the adjustment bolt to make sure the manual valve of the No. 1 hydrogen tank assembly is closed.

      Torque: 25 N*m (255 kgf*cm, 18 ft.*lbf)

      NOTE:
      • The manual valve shuts off the pressure from the hydrogen tank assembly, so be careful not to damage the hexagonal portion.
      • If the hexagonal portion has been damaged, the No. 1 hydrogen tank assembly must be replaced.
      • To prevent nitrogen gas from flowing into the hydrogen tank assembly, do not open the manual valve until after the primary leak inspection is completed.
    • Using an 8 mm socket hexagon wrench, apply the specified tightening torque to the adjustment bolt to make sure the manual valve of the No. 2 hydrogen tank assembly is closed.

    • Prepare SST (10 MPa leak inspection tool).
      1. Check that the injection valve and discharge valve of SST (port assembly) are closed.

      NOTE:
      • Raise the pressure to 10 MPa (102.0 kgf/cm2 , 1450 psi) over a period of 5 to 20 seconds.
      • If there is a hissing sound of nitrogen gas leaking out when the SST (regulator assembly) valve is opened, close the SST (regulator assembly) valve, and after determining the location of the leak, replace the leaking component with a new one.
      • Even when it seems like the leaking sound is only coming from one location, it may be drowning out leaking sounds from other locations, so make sure to perform leakage point identification for all connecting portions.
    • Connect a battery charger to the auxiliary battery, and put the auxiliary battery into a charging state.

      NOTE:
      • If there is a hissing sound of nitrogen gas leaking out when the tank shut valves are opened, close both tank shut valves, and after determining the location of the leak, replace the leaking component with a new one.
      • Even when it seems like the leaking sound is only coming from one location, it may be drowning out leaking sounds from other locations, so make sure to perform leakage point identification for all connecting portions.

      HINT: 

      If the tank shut valve does not open, check that all of the hydrogen tank assembly manual valves are closed, and perform the primary leak inspection again.

      GTY1160806Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
    • When the tank shut valve has been opened, if the pressure has gone below 10 MPa (102.0 kgf/cm2 , 1450 psi), increase the pressure to 10 MPa (102.0 kgf/cm2 , 1450 psi).
    • Close the nitrogen cylinder valve.

    • After closing the nitrogen cylinder valve and the SST (regulator assembly) valve, wait for 10 minutes to allow the pressure in the piping to stabilize.

      HINT: 

      When nitrogen has just been filled, the temperature inside the piping is increased, causing pressure to increase. Afterwards, when the temperature in the piping decreases, the pressure decreases. For this reason, pressure is not stable immediately after nitrogen filling.

    • After checking that the high-range hydrogen pressure and medium-range hydrogen pressure has stabilized, wait an additional 30 minutes, and then check the pressure decrease.

      6. Slowly loosen the No. 1 hydrogen supply regulator plug until the hissing sound of gas escaping can be heard, then stop loosening the No. 1 hydrogen supply regulator plug and wait for the sound to stop. Repeat this procedure multiple times until the sound stops occurring, in order to depressurize the nitrogen gas from the medium pressure leak check port of the hydrogen supply regulator.

        NOTE:

        When depressurizing the nitrogen gas, only loosen the No. 1 hydrogen supply regulator plug. Do not remove it.

      7. Remove the No. 1 hydrogen supply regulator plug from the hydrogen supply regulator.
        NOTE:

        When frost has formed on the hydrogen tank assembly or piping, water droplets may be formed when the frost begins to melt. If water droplets enter the tank or piping, it could result in blockage of the hydrogen piping, so do not allow water droplets to enter the tank or piping.

      15. After replacing the leaking component with a new one, perform primary leak inspection again.
  5. SECOND LEAK CHECK 
    NOTE:
    • Secondary leak inspection is performed after primary leak inspection has found no leaks.
    • When replacing or removing and installing any high pressure hydrogen system component (the hydrogen inlet receptacle assembly, hydrogen tank tube joint assembly, hydrogen tank assembly, hydrogen supply regulator, or hydrogen tank tube), transport the vehicle to a hydrogen station such as on a car transporter and fill the tanks completely with compressed hydrogen gas.

    HINT: 

    • When replacing or removing and installing the high pressure hydrogen system components, and when removing and installing medium pressure and high-pressure hydrogen pipes, perform the secondary leak inspection.
    • Hydrogen gas may stay near the hydrogen detector, detect hydrogen leaks, and output DTC. Perform the secondary leak inspection with the No. 3 FC exhaust pipe installed.

    Pre-procedure1

    • When replacing or removing and installing high pressure hydrogen system components:
      1. At the hydrogen station, fill the tanks completely with compressed hydrogen gas.
    • Blow compressed air around the front compartment room and underside of the vehicle.
      GTY601758Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002

      HINT: 

      To enable accurate detection of hydrogen gas leaks from the piping, blow compressed air from the front of the vehicle towards the rear.

    • If there are water droplets, etc. adhering to any of the measurement locations, wipe them away before performing the procedures.
      NOTE:

      If measurements are performed while water droplets, etc. are adhered, the hydrogen gas detector may be damaged.

    • Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
    • Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
    • Enter the following menus: Powertrain / EV / Utility / Leak Check
