Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Diagnostic trouble code chart
If a dtc is displayed during the dtc check, check the circuit listed in the table below and proceed to the page given.
Hint:
- *1: "Comes on" means the malfunction indicator lamp (mil) illuminates.
- *2: "Dtc stored" means the ecm memorizes the malfunction code if the ecm detects the dtc detection condition.
- These dtcs may be output when the clutch, brake, gear components, etc., Inside the automatic transaxle are damaged.
- Transmission range sensor circuit malfunction (prndl input)
- Transmission fluid temperature sensor "A" circuit
- Transmission fluid temperature sensor "A" performance
- Input speed sensor circuit no signal
- Brake switch "B" circuit high
- Torque converter clutch solenoid performance (shift solenoid valve dsl)
- Pressure control solenoid "A " performance (shift solenoid valve sl1)
- Pressure control solenoid "A" electrical (shift solenoid valve sl1)
- Shift solenoid "d" performance (shift solenoid valve s4)
- Pressure control solenoid "B" performance (shift solenoid valve sl2)
- Pressure control solenoid "b" electrical (shift solenoid valve sl2)
- Intermediate shaft speed sensor "A"
- Shift solenoid "d" control circuit
- Pressure control solenoid "d" performance (shift solenoid valve slt)
- Pressure control solenoid "d" electrical (shift solenoid valve slt)
- Torque converter clutch solenoid circuit

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

Transmission range sensor circuit malfunction (prndl input)
Description
The park/neutral position (pnp) switch detects the shift lever position and
sends signals to the ecm.
Monitor description
These dtcs indicate a problem with the park/neutral p ...

Checking and adding the
brake fluid
â– Checking fluid level
The brake fluid level should be
between the "MAX" and "MIN"
lines on the tank.
â– Adding fluid
1. Slide and lift up the rubber
strip to partly remove it as
shown.
2. Disconnect the claws and
remove the service cover.
3. Remove the reservoir cap.
4. Add brake fluid slowl ...
Pressure control solenoid "A" electrical (shift solenoid valve sl1)
Description
Shifting from 1st to o/d is performed in combination with the on and off
operation of the shift solenoid
valves sl1 and sl2, which are controlled by the ecm. If an open or short circuit
occurs in any of the shift
solenoid valves, the ecm controls the remaining normal shift soleno ...
Automatic transaxle fluid
On-vehicle inspection
Check transaxle fluid level
Hint:
Drive the vehicle so that the engine and transaxle are at
normal operating temperature.
Fluid temperature:
70 to 80°c (158 to 176°f)
Park the vehicle on a level surface and set the
parking brake.
With the engine idling and ...
