i realize it is quite off topic but does anybody know of a good site to stream new movies online?
You guys have saved me a lot of money. Your videos have enabled me to change my water pump,fuel sending unit ,and serpentine belt. As I have told my wife, I have more time than money. Thanks for the videos and; I always recommend you guys to friends.
Been a mechanic since I was a kid. I always check CZcams to see if anyone else has any nifty tricks or advice. This is a straight forward job, but good info on the cover screws and the green hose clip. Very good attention to detail! Thanks for your excellent video. Very professional!
Kids will never know how much power and knowledge they have right in their hands
+LegendaryNick_XE Thank you for your feedback!
They know how much power they have . They just waste it on social media
Thank you for this. Ordered the part from you, followed the video, and everything is running great again! Couldn't be simpler.
Changed the whole car never been better thank you!! And quickest and easiest install ever!!

I always watched your video before i do a major repair on a car. You guys are awesome technician!!!!

+OuttKeyy Renee Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
I want to say thank you for the assistance as I replaced the fuel sending unit on my 05 Altima. Little different set up on mine as I'm not sure if it was due to mine being a V6, 3.5 SE. I had two connections on top of sending unit and a lock ring. I would also recommend that you wear a ventilator mask as the fumes were pungent.
That's the setup for federal emissions. The one in the video is California emissions.
i changed a fuel pump for 2012 Nissan Versa Hatchback 1.8 liter, and I did not release the fuel psi before or after, but I started on an empty tank, and I turned the key on and said that I have a half a tank except both fuel pumps match up the same and identical parts. I never had a any problems with the fuel gauge before, so I know that it had something to do with the installation of the fuel pump. I am curious of it might being something simple.
Very interesting and I appreciate and thank you kindly for taking the time and effort to show how this is done learning can be fun
Just order a fuel pump from 1a auto hopefully it’ll last longer than the one I got from Amazon lol . Love your videos always watch your videos even on stuff I’m not replacing as a just in case scenario lol
Very helpful. Thank you. And very clear explanation
+Eunice Lubigan Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
This is awesome thanks. I'm going to try this myself. Question. Would a bad fuel pump affect putting the gas it?
TIP: for our 2005 Altima with a different locking ring... After using a hammer and a screwdriver to get the ring off with great difficulty, we finally got it off but putting the ring back on with the hammer and a screwdriver was even harder. I got my air chisel out and it went on super fast at 100 psi.
Thanks it worked
Guys, can you do sway bar bushing replacement front and rear of this model.
Excellent tutorial.

Hi and thank you for this video. I have an 07 Nissan Sentra that I just replaced the fuel pump assembly on. I followed your instructions/video to a T! After I installed it I went and filled the tank. After 8 miles the digital gas gauge dropped to 3/4 of a tank. I'm like something isn't right so I went back and got a replacement and the same thing is showing with the new pump. I wanted to know if you could post a video/walk me through how to reset a digital fuel gauge? I really need your help. TIA. By the way I went online and looked at the manual and it doesn't show how to. 🤦🏾♂️
Can you help me?
I have an 06 Altima with a code (P0462 fuel level sensor A circuit low output)
Do I have to replace the pump? Car runs fine but Fuel gauge is off. Tank is empty at 1/4 tank.
Thanks in advance if you have the answer.
Yeah I got the part today but I don’t have a regular emissions I have a California emissions and it needs two of those little things on top of it I need help getting the right part???
Will this fix my floating gas gauge?
Omg thank you I really thought I was about to be out a lot of money
So I'm getting P0462 Fuel level Sensor a Circuit is low. Is the sensor inside the fuel pump? Do just need to change the fuel pump.
I have been getting erratic readings for months.
Didn't know I had to disconnect negative terminal and remove fuel pump fuse. Now after installation my gas is reading full tank. I reinstall the whole thing correctly still reading full. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
Long story short - Had at least a year old problem and took it to a couple shops and didn't fix it . It was not revving up no matter if i floored pedal . It was gas pump and I went to junk yard got it for $34 including warranty . That was yesterday now running like a champ like new !! Yeah at very beginning suspected it might be pump but went with shop's recommendation . I trouble shooted it myself .
+Frank Montez Thanks for checking us out!
Thanks you 😊 very much alot of help
thank you... helpful
Had a shop diagnose my 05 Altima not starting and they determined it was the fuel pump. My dilemma now is they're charging over $500 for replacing it. Given what is shown here is that a fair price?
Thanks for this.
+Sarah Thank you!
Will this fix my clusters fuel gauge from reading half when it’s empty ?
Hi just replaced my fuel pump and my gas gauge is still innacurate, any tips on what else it could be?
Guage cluster .you tube inaccurate fuel gauge and a video can explain.altima is known for this issue .I just found out today
What about a 2015 Altima?
Where can I find the green piece to lock on the pump I threw away the old pump and forgot to take it off
My 05 altima has 2 feed lines is it the same setup ..because my car cranks but doesn't turn over ..diagnosis at a shop determined bad fuel pump so I just ordered one from you guys (big fan of videos and parts) is there a video on the fuel pump with the dual line or is it the same process, also you think my car will start up after replaced pump?
+Sean Cortes Sounds like a new fuel pump will fix the problem you are running into based on the diagnosis from your mechanic. 1aauto.com
Hi there i have a question.. my altima ran out of fuel and now it starts during the day but in the morning around 3am at weather temp of 75 degrees it wont start..should i replace the fuel pump.
Sounds like u have a short some where guarantee you is something simple easy fix
The gas is a lubricant for the pump, if you run the tank out, do not try to start the vehicle, if you do (usually repeatedly due to denial), you can burn the pump up.
So the California complaint one doesn’t need a gasket ? I see that the website has the gasket fit the non compliant one
How much it cost with labour ?
After doing this did gas leak through the locking ring because gas it just coming right through mine
should i warm up my car before i replace the pump? or do i do it cold
+Mr.sausages You can change it while the vehicle is cold. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com
We're is the fuel filter located inside the gas tank?
Hi just watch s your video on install a fuel pump on a altima I just did one the car started up fine I shut it off now the car won’t start it turns over but won’t start any hell on y thank u
did you fix it already? if you did what was the problem?
Any update on your problem. Having almost same problem just that my car cranks perfect during the evening but wont start in the mornings.
Will it automatically know how much fuel is in the tank when replaced??
+Leo Cardenas Here's a link to the replacement fuel pump shown in this video. It includes a new sending unit that will register how much gas is in the tank. Hope this helps you out goo.gl/fzthLf
Thank you so much
+Antonio García Thanks for checking us out! 1AAuto.com
Is it best to do this when your tank is near empty?
+Jahmal H Yes, The less fuel that is in the tank the less that the tank will weigh when trying to service the fuel pump. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com
How am I supposed to depressurize when it doesn’t run in the first place
So California emissions have bolts instead of the lock ring. Is this also why it only has one hose instead of two? Non-California emissions cars have two hoses.
Qtips work wonders to clean up.
How do you know that fuel pump needs to be replaced?
I have the same question
Isn’t the fuel filter in the fuel pump for these cars
How can i diagnose this problem..
And be sure it is the fuel pump, and not the crank/cam position sensor?
the sensors will throw codes and will not let the spark plugs fire
I recently bought a fuel pump for my car. But the pump was not the same as the model I have in my car. I've been trying to return this part but I can't. Whenever I type my email and zipcode I never receive the email to process the return.
When you buy it is all very quick and easy to return it is a completely different story. They don’t have phone number to call, they don’t reply emails.
So I replaced the fuel pump it’s cranked but now it’s still giving me no crank I primed it 3 times . Did the “turn it to On position and wait 30 seconds then cut it off and place it in the start position for 15” still no crank I hear the pump every time I cut the car in the on position but still no crank… what could be the main cause ?
Where is the fuel filter in 2005 nissan Altima 2.5s 4cl?
Nick Ortega Louis the fuel filter is part of the fuel pump.
It is hooked to the fuel pump underneath the backseat
In the fuel pump
would doing this with a Nissan Altima 2003 be the same process? or is it specifically just for 04-06 years
+Moises Lara The install process will be different for the 2003 Altima. We don't have a how-to video for your vehicle right now, but the basic steps in this video may be enough to do this task. Thanks for checking us out!
1A Auto Parts thanks!
How do you replace the fuel filter
Same question here
I have a 06 Altima and the gas gauge is off. Can be around half a tank and my car will be out of gas. What could be the problem
+Jarrard Jat Thanks for your inquiry. There could be multiple reasons why you're having this particular problem. We suggest taking your vehicle to a nearby reputable shop to identify the cause. Once you know the cause, we'll be happy to see if we carry the parts and how-to videos needed for your repair.
Do you need to replace the gas ?
No, you do not have to replace the gas. +Manuel Salgado
Can i change it without disconnecting the negative terminal?
only if you want sparks
It doesn't seem necessary if you remove the proper fuse (there won't be any electrical current to the pump without the fuse in place).
Is this Fuel pump good for California emissions?
+Cheems This part is listed to fit models with California emissions.
Where is tbe fuel pump/sending unit on a 2005 nissa altima 2.5
Sending unit and fuel pump is one assembly
What happens if you don't remove the fuse?
Removing the fuse kills the electricity to the pump, gasoline vapors and electrical sparks don't go well together, especially not in the interior of the vehicle.
I did this on my Nissan now the fuel gauge does not read correctly. There is nothing wrong with the sending unit. The gauge reads full but will stop moving at a half tank. The gauge is not stuck. Shutting down the engine the guage goes to empty. I have tested the connection at the sending unit and I can't get full movement of the gauge but with resistance different than the sending unit. Is there a procedure to reteach the gauge?
Did you find what was wrong mine is reading like urs
To test the cluster:
1. Turn ignition switch ON (don't start car, just turn to on)
2. Switch the odo/trip meter to “trip A” or “trip B” and hold the button down (this will reset your trip meter to zero).
3. Turn ignition switch OFF (keep holding the trip button down).
3. Turn ignition switch back ON (still holding down trip button).
4. Take finger off the button and press the same button a few times quickly ( at least 3 times within 7 seconds).
6. The cluster is now in self-diagnosis mode (all the digits in the odometer will be light)
7. Press in the odo/trip button (if the cluster is good, you'll see the dials bounce up every time you press the button)
8. Switch off (which ends the cluster check).
Is this the same for a maxima
At this moment, the closest how-to video we have to your request is for this vehicle, which is very similar to the one you have. The steps may not be 100% the same, but should contain an adequate amount of information necessary for accomplishing this task: +Steve Lopez
Is the fuel filter together with the pump?
+carlos contreras Yes, we carry the complete unit shown in this video on our website. Here is a link to them www.1aauto.com/nissan-altima-fuel-pump-and-sending-unit-module/i/1afpu01360?CZcams&CTA+Comment&WBxe-tY-A
1A Auto Parts thank u
No, they are separate parts, the pump is usually found near or inside of the gas tank, and the filter is usually located under the hood.
Silly question, but can you replace the California top with a federal top?
+Duane Bedgood We do not recommend it. Thanks for checking us out!
You cannot. The tank is different. Federal emissions uses a turn style lock ring. California uses a bolt down ring.
You would also have a open return port on the fuel pump
Same exact thing happened to me man lmaoo
Mine doesn’t have the “plate” but the screw on top! What do I do? It won’t work and the company will not exchange it because I tried to put it on!
+Donnie Cook Sounds like it might be the wrong part. If you bought it from us, call our Customer Service Department at 888-844-3393 and we can look into your case to see what we can do.
It’s ok I made it work! 😆
Great! Thanks for the update! +Donnie Cook
Best video ever
Is this the same on the 3.5 v6
+Kyle Powell It may be the same or a similar process. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com
3.5 has 2 hoses and one sensor
and yet I see nothiing in this video that addresses "How to Replace Fuel Sending Unit 04-06 Nissan Altima L4 2.5L" Unfortunate considering how much these things now cost.
Thanks
I need a federal Fuel pump and sending unit assembly repair a video
+doobie gotbeats We're always cycling through common cars. We'll add this repair to our list! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Kind of a dumb question. Why is this part only like $80 on your website but like $300 anywhere else?
+akilcox1 We sell our own house brand parts that cost much less than name brand parts. Most of the cost will be in the brand name, so we are almost always a lot lower in price! www.1aauto.com/nissan-altima-fuel-pump-and-sending-unit-module/i/1afpu01360?CZcams&CTA+Comment&WBxe-tY-A
Thanks So Much.
1A Auto Parts I ordered the part and went to put in on my car and noticed my Car has 2 nozzles instead of one. Is there a return policy, or do you guys have the part I need for my car?
Yeah that's the whole fuel pump with the sending unit, how about just the sending unit like the title states? Other than that good video.
why won't my fuel pump lower into the tank. The old one and new one wont go back in
+Unconditional Love You may want to check the surface area for debris or something that may be preventing the fuel pump from seating properly. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com
1A Auto Parts can i use this part in sacramento california
What about fuel filter, where is that located?
+Saul Hernandez The fuel filter should be located inside the fuel pump. Thanks for watching.
@@1AAuto thanks for the response. My vehicle is cranking but not starting. I assumed it was a fuel filter because for a while of cranking, I can smell gas in motor. And it makes humming sound when key is turned so didnt think it fuel pump
Where is the fuel pump on a 2005 Nissan Altima?
Same place. Under the rear seat.
Bro. This entire video is on a 2005 Nissan Altima
What if the engine doesnt turn at all, it only clicks the car doesnt start.
Starter or not enuff power to turn it over check ur battery or battery terminals make sure they nice's in tight
Sounds like your starter man
Sounds like you may have a bad Starter.
You just saved 300 for the part only
+landa white Great! Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com
U just replaced the whole module, not the sending unit only.
