Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Check and replace ecu
Notice:
- The connector should not be disconnected from the ecu. Perform the inspection from the backside of the connector on the wire harness side.
- When no measuring condition is specified, perform the inspection with the engine stopped and the ignition switch on.
- Check that the connectors are fully seated. Check for loose, corroded or broken wires.
- First, check the ecu ground circuit. If it is faulty,
repair it. If it is normal, the ecu could be faulty.
Temporarily replace the ecu with a normally functioning one and check if the problem symptoms occur. If the problem symptoms disappear, replace the original ecu.
