Fuel tank pressure sensor replacement.

Hi, I am trying to replace the fuel pressure sensor. I cant figure out how to remove the old one. There is a clip that holds it in and I cant figure out how to remove it.

Re: Fuel tank pressure sensor replacement.

Try pushing on the clip instead of pulling. IDK, maybe you have to spread out the legs of the clip on the hidden side before it will pull out.

If all else fails, remove the whole assembly from the car so you can take it apart on the workbench.

I am trying to replace this as well on my 2013 Si, where is this sensor located? Is it inside the pump assembly?

Yep I joined this forum just to verify that access to the back of the clip is required. I finally dropped and removed the whole can. Not doable from the front. Wow. I was able to use a pick to push out and to the side on just one of the legs.
I know this thread is old but I ended up here from google, and just wanted to verify this info, so others wouldn't waste their time playing around like I did!
