Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Eps warning light circuit
Description
If the power steering ecu detects a malfunction, the p/s warning light comes on. At this time, the power steering ecu stores a dtc in its memory.
Wiring diagram
Inspection procedure
- Check for dtc
- Using the intelligent tester (with can vim), check for dtcs and confirm that there are no problems in the can communication system.
Ok: can dtcs are not output.
- Read value of intelligent tester (ig power supply)
- 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 item "ig supply" in the data list and read the value displayed on the intelligent tester.
Main body ecu
- Inspect fuse (ecu-ig1)
- Remove the ecu-ig1 fuse from the instrument panel junction block.
- Measure the resistance of the fuse.
Ok:
below 1 
- Check wire harness (battery - power steering ecu and body ground)
- Disconnect the a1 and e18 power steering ecu connector.
- Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard voltage
- Perform active test by intelligent tester
- Connect the intelligent tester (with can vim) to the dlc3.
- Turn the ignition switch on and press the intelligent tester main switch on.
- Operate the intelligent tester according to the steps on the display and select the active test.
Combination meter
Ok: indicator comes on.
