Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Diagnostic trouble code chart
If a dtc is displayed during the dtc check, check the circuit listed in the table below and proceed to the page given.
Hint:
- *1: "Comes on" means the malfunction indicator lamp (mil) illuminates.
- *2: "Dtc stored" means the ecm memorizes the malfunction code if the ecm detects the dtc detection condition.
- These dtcs may be output when the clutch, brake, gear components, etc., Inside the automatic transaxle are damaged.
- Transmission range sensor circuit malfunction (prndl input)
- Transmission fluid temperature sensor "A" circuit
- Transmission fluid temperature sensor "A" performance
- Input speed sensor circuit no signal
- Brake switch "B" circuit high
- Torque converter clutch solenoid performance (shift solenoid valve dsl)
- Pressure control solenoid "A " performance (shift solenoid valve sl1)
- Pressure control solenoid "A" electrical (shift solenoid valve sl1)
- Shift solenoid "d" performance (shift solenoid valve s4)
- Pressure control solenoid "B" performance (shift solenoid valve sl2)
- Pressure control solenoid "b" electrical (shift solenoid valve sl2)
- Intermediate shaft speed sensor "A"
- Shift solenoid "d" control circuit
- Pressure control solenoid "d" performance (shift solenoid valve slt)
- Pressure control solenoid "d" electrical (shift solenoid valve slt)
- Torque converter clutch solenoid circuit

Transmission range sensor circuit malfunction (prndl input)
Description
The park/neutral position (pnp) switch detects the shift lever position and
sends signals to the ecm.
Monitor description
These dtcs indicate a problem with the park/neutral p ...

Removal
Disconnect cable from negative battery
terminal
Caution:
Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the
cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to
prevent airbag and seat belt pretensioner activation.
Remove console rear end panel (see page ip-

Basic inspection
When a malfunction is not confirmed by the dtc check,
troubleshooting should be carried out in all circuits
considered to be possible causes of the problem. In many
cases, by carrying out the basic engine check shown in the
following flowchart, the location of the problem can be found
quickly a ...
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, ...
