Follow these steps carefully
Park the 2015-2019 Ford Explorer outdoors on level ground, set the parking brake, let the engine cool, check the VIN/engine-specific procedure, and compare the replacement pump module with the original before opening the fuel system.
Follow the 2015-2019 Ford Explorer service procedure to disable the pump or remove the fuel-pump fuse/relay, run the engine only as directed until pressure is relieved, then switch off the ignition and disconnect the negative battery cable when specified. Wrap connections before opening them.
Lower and support the fuel tank with a rated jack, disconnect the filler/vent hoses, electrical connectors, fuel lines, and straps, then remove the tank without stretching lines.
Mark connector and line positions, release each lock without prying on plastic, and remove the retaining ring with the vehicle-approved method. Lift the pump module straight out while controlling residual fuel and protecting the sender and float.
Compare the old and new parts, install the new seal/O-ring and any supplied filter, strainer, clips, or lock ring in the exact orientation, and seat the module without pinching the seal. Use only the specified lubricant and torque/retainer method.
Reconnect every fuel, vapor, and electrical connection, reinstall the service cover or raise the tank and tighten straps/hoses to the exact procedure, then reconnect the battery. Cycle the ignition as directed several times without cranking to prime the 2015-2019 Ford Explorer system.
Before starting, inspect the module, lines, tank, and ground for wet fuel or vapor. Start the 2015-2019 Ford Explorer, let it idle while checking for leaks and abnormal pump noise, scan for faults if appropriate, and do not drive if fuel odor, seepage, a no-start, or low-pressure symptom remains.
Test your repair before closing everything up. If something doesn't work right, double-check your steps.
