Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Different diameter tire malfunction
Description
The skid control ecu measures the speed of each wheel by receiving signals from the speed sensor.
These signals are used for recognizing that all 4 wheels are operating properly. Therefore, all wheel signals must be equal.
Inspection procedure
- Check tire size
- Check the diameter of all 4 tires.
Ok: diameter of all 4 tires are equal.
- Check speed sensor rotor
- Remove the drive shaft, and check around the speed sensor rotor.
Ok: no scratches or foreign matter on the sensor tip.
- Check speed sensor
- Check the speed sensor circuit (see page bc-64 or bc- 70).
- Check wire harness (skid control ecu - each speed sensor)
- Check the speed sensor circuit (see page bc-69 or bc- 70).
- Reconfirm dtc
- Clear the dtcs (see page bc-47).
- Drive the vehicle at more than 20 km/h (12 mph) for more than 60 seconds.
- Check if the same dtcs are detected.
Result 
Replace abs and traction actuator assembly
Steering angle sensor zero point malfunction
Description
The skid control ecu learns the steering sensor zero point every time the
ignition switch is turned on and
the vehicle is driven at 35 km/h (22 mph) or more for approximately 5 sec ...
Downhill assist control operation switch (test mode dtc)
Description
The downhill assist control switch is connected to the skid control ecu in
the abs and traction
actuator.
Dtc c1379/74 can be detected when the downhill assist control switch se ...

Inspection
Inspect engine coolant temperature sensor
Measure the resistance of the sensor.
Standard resistance
Notice:
If checking the sensor in water, be careful not to
allow water to contact the terminals. After
checking, wipe the water off the sensor.
If the result is not as specified, ...
Room temperature sensor circuit
Description
The room temperature sensor is installed in the instrument panel to detect
the room temperature and
control the heater and air conditioner auto mode. The resistance of the room
temperature sensor
changes in accordance with the room temperature. As the temperature decreases,
...
