Toyota RAV4 Service Manual: 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 sends the
downhill assist control
switch signal or test mode ends. Dtc c1379/74 is output only in test mode.

Wiring diagram
Refer to downhill assist control switch circuit (see page bc-157).
Inspection procedure
Notice:
When replacing the abs and traction actuator, perform zero point
calibration (see page bc-24).
- Check wire harness (skid control ecu - body ground)

- Disconnect the a19 ecu.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side
connector.
Standard resistance 

- Inspect downhill assist control switch

- Remove the downhill assist control switch.
- Measure the resistance of the switch.

- Check wire harness (skid control ecu - downhill assist control
switch)

- Disconnect the a19 ecu connector.
- Disconnect the e31 switch connector.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side
connectors.

Stop light control relay malfunction

Description
The skid control ecu inputs the stop light switch signal and detects the
status of the brake operation.

Inspection procedure
Notice:
When replacing the abs and traction actuator, perform zero point
calibration (see page bc-24).
- Check stop light (operation)
- Check that the light illuminates when the brake pedal is
depressed, and turns off when the brake pedal is
released.
Ok 

- Check wire harness (skid control ecu - battery)

- Disconnect the a19 ecu connector.
- Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.

- Check wire harness (skid control ecu)
- Disconnect the a19 ecu connector.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side

- Perform active test by intelligent tester (stop light relay)
- Select the active test, generate a control command,
and then check that the stop light relay operates.

Ok:
the stop lights illuminate or turn off.

- Reconfirm dtc
- Clear the dtc (see page bc-47).
- Start the engine.
- Drive the vehicle at a speed of 5 km/h (3 mph) or more
for several seconds.
- Check if the same dtc is output (see page bc-47).

Replace abs and traction actuator assembly
- Inspect stop light control relay (marking: brk)

- Remove the stop light control relay from the engine room
no. 1 Relay block.
- Measure the resistance of the relay.
