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.
