Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Manual shifting test
- Manual shifting test
Hint:
- Through this test, it can be determined whether the trouble occurs in the electrical circuit or if it is a mechanical problem in the transaxle.
- If any abnormalities are found in the following test, the problem is in the transaxle itself.
- Disconnect the connector of the transmission wire.
Hint:
It is possible to deactivate the electrical shift control by disconnecting the transmission wire. The gear positions can then be changed mechanically with the shift lever.
- Drive with the transmission wire disconnected.
Move the shift lever to each position to check whether the gear position changes as shown in the table below.
- Connect the connector of the transmission wire.
- Clear the dtc (see page ax-29).
Initialization
- Reset memory
Notice:
- Perform the reset memory procedures (a/t initialization) when replacing the automatic transaxle assembly, engine assembly or ecm.
- Reset memory can be performed only with the intelligent tester.
Hint:
The ecm memorizes the vehicle conditions when the ect controls the automatic transaxle assembly and engine assembly. Therefore, when the automatic transaxle assembly, engine assembly, or ecm has been replaced, it is necessary to reset the memory so that the ecm can memorize the new information.
The reset procedures are as follows.
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Connect the intelligent tester to the can vim. Then connect the can vim to the dlc3.
- Turn the ignition switch on and turn the tester on.
- Enter the following menus: diagnosis / enhanced obd ii.
- Perform the reset memory procedures from the
Engine menu.
Caution:
After performing the reset memory procedures, be sure to perform the road test (see page ax-12) as described earlier.
Hint:
The ecm learns through the road test.

Notice:
Perform the test at the normal operating atf
temperature: 50 to 80°c (122 to 176°f).
The line pressure test should always be
performed with at least ...

Check for open circuit
For an open circuit in the wire harness in fig. 1,
Check the resistance or voltage, as described below.
Check the resistance.
Disconnect connectors a and c, and measure
the resistance between them.
Standard resistance (fig. 2)
Hint:
Measure the resistance while lightly s ...
Data list / active test (2006/01- )
Read data list
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 early in
troubleshooting is one way to save time.
Connect the intelligent tester (with can vim) to the
...
