Toyota RAV4 Service Manual: Motor rotation angle sensor malfunction
Description
The motor rotation angle sensor detects the motor rotation angle and sends this information to the power steering ecu.
Wiring diagram
Inspection procedure
- Check connector connection condition
- Check the installation condition of the motor rotation angle sensor connector.
Ok: motor rotation angle sensor connector is securely connected to the power steering ecu.
Result 
- reconfirm dtc
- Reinstall motor rotation angle sensor connector.
- Check for dtc.
Ok: dtc is not output.
Result 
- Read value of intelligent tester (motor rotation angle sensor)
- Connect the intelligent tester (with can vim) to the dlc3.
- Turn the ignition switch on and press the intelligent tester main switch on.
- Select the items "motor rotate" in the data list
and read the value displayed on the intelligent tester.
Ok: during steering operation, motor rotation angle value changes from 0 to 360м/b>

Test mode check
Hint:
When entering the test mode, the tire pressure
warning ecu sets all the test dtcs first. After
completing the test mode for each inspection item, the
dtcs that are determined normal by the tire pressure
warning ecu will be erased.

Read data list
Hint:
Using the intelligent tester's data list allows switch,
sensor, actuator and other item values to be read without
removing any parts. Reading the data list early in
troubleshooting is one way to save time.
