Diagnostic trouble code chart
If a dtc is displayed during the dtc check, check the circuit
listed for the dtc in the table below (refer to the appropriate
page).
Hint:
When the srs warning light remains on and the normal
system code is output, a decrease in the source voltage is
likely to occur. This malfunction is n ...
Symptom confirmation and diagnostic trouble code
Hint:
The diagnostic system in the rav4 has various
functions.
The first function is the diagnostic trouble code
(dtc) check. A dtc is a code stored in the ecu
memory whenever a malfunction in the signal circuits
to the ecu occurs. In a dtc check, a previous
malfunction's dtc can be ch ...
