Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Brake switch "A" / "B" correlation

Toyota RAV4. Brake switch "a" / "b" correlation


Description

The stop light switch is a duplex system that transmits two signals: stp and st1-. These two signals are used by the ecm to monitor whether or not the brake system is working properly. If the signals, which indicate the brake pedal is being depressed and released, are detected simultaneously, the ecm interprets this as a malfunction in the stop light switch and sets the dtc.

Hint:

The normal conditions are as shown in the table below. The signals can be read using the intelligent tester.

Inspection procedure

Hint:

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the dlc3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch on.
  3. Turn the tester on.
  4. Select the following menu items: diagnosis / enhanced obd ii / data list / primary / stop light sw.
  5. Check the stp signal when the brake pedal is depressed and released.

Toyota RAV4. Inspection procedure


  1. Check stop light switch assembly (terminal b voltage)

  1. Disconnect the a3 stop light switch connector.
  2. Turn the ignition switch on.
  3. Measure the voltage between the terminals of the a3 stop light switch connector and body ground.

Standard voltage


  1. Reconnect the stop light switch connector.



  1. Inspect stop light switch assembly

  1. Remove the stop light switch.
  2. Check the resistance.

Standard resistance


  1. Reinstall the stop light switch.


  1. Check ecm (stp and st1 - voltage)

  1. Disconnect the a9 ecm connector.
  2. Turn the ignition switch on.
  3. Measure the voltage between the terminals st1- and stp of the a9 ecm connector and body ground.

standard voltage


  1. Reconnect the ecm connector.

 


  1. Inspect fuse (stop and ign fuse)

  1. Remove the stop and ign fuses from the instrument panel junction block.
  2. Measure the resistance.

Standard resistance: below 1


  1. Reinstall the stop and ign fuses.




Vehicle speed sensor "A"
description The speed sensor detects the wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the skid control ecu. The skid control ecu converts these wheel speed signals into a 4-pulse signal ...

Idle control system malfunction
Description The idling speed is controlled by the etcs (electronic throttle control system). The etcs is comprised of: 1) the one valve type throttle body; 2) the throttle actuator, which op ...

Camshaft position sensor "a" circuit (bank 1 or single sensor)
Description The camshaft position (cmp) sensor consists of a magnet and an iron core which is wrapped with copper wire, and is installed onto the cylinder head. When the camshaft rotates, each of 3 teeth on the camshaft passes through the cmp sensor. This activates the internal magnet in ...

Compressor circuit
Description When the a/c switch is turned on, the magnetic clutch on signal is sent from the air conditioning amplifier. Then the mg clt relay turns on to operate the magnetic clutch. Wiring diagram Inspection procedure Perform active test by intelligent tester (a/c mag clutch) C ...

If you think something is wrong
If you notice any of the following symptoms, your vehicle probably needs adjustment or repair. Contact your Toyota dealer as soon as possible. Visible symptoms Fluid leaks under the vehicle (Water dripping from the air conditioning after use is normal.) Flat-looking tires or uneven tire wear ...
