Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Fail-safe chart
- Fail-safe chart
This function minimizes the loss of the ect functions when a malfunction occurs in a sensor or solenoid.
- Automatic transmission fluid (atf) temperature sensor: when the atf temperature sensor has a malfunction, o/d up-shift is prohibited
- Counter gear speed sensor nc (speed sensor nc): when the counter gear speed sensor has a malfunction, o/d up-shift is prohibited.
- Shift solenoid valve dsl:
when the solenoid valve dsl has a malfunction, the
current to the solenoid valve is stopped.
This stops lock-up control, then fuel economy decreases.
- Shift solenoid valve sl1, sl2 and s4:
if any of the shift solenoid valve circuits develops an
open or short, the ecm turns the other shift solenoid
"on" and "off" in order to shift into the gear
positions shown in the table below.
Manual shifting as shown in the following table must be done. In case of a short circuit, the ecm stops sending the current to the short circuited solenoid.
Even if starting the engine in the fail-safe mode, the gear position remains in the same position.
Hint:

operation is shown above the

Check mode procedure
Description
Check mode has a higher sensitivity to malfunctions
and can detect malfunctions that normal mode
cannot detect. Check mode can also detect all the
malfunctions that normal m ...

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

How to proceed with troubleshooting
Hint:
Use these procedures to troubleshoot the tire pressure
warning system.
*: Use the intelligent tester.
Vehicle brought to workshop
Inspect battery voltage
Standard voltage:
11 to 14 v
If the voltage is below 11 v, recharge or replace the battery
before proceeding.

Pressure control solenoid "d" electrical (shift solenoid valve slt)
Description
Refer to dtc p2714 (see page ax-91).
Monitor description
When an open or short in the shift solenoid valve slt circuit is detected,
the ecm interprets this as a fault.
The ecm will illuminate the mil and store the dtc.
