Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Front fog light circuit
Description
The main body ecu controls the front fog light relay (marking: fr fog) when a signal is received from the headlight dimmer switch.
Wiring diagram
Inspection procedure
- Perform active test by intelligent tester
- Connect the intelligent tester (with can vim) to the dlc3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the on position and press the intelligent tester main switch on.
- Select the item below in the active test and then check the relay operation.
Ok: front fog light comes on.
- Check taillight
- Check that the taillight comes on when the light control switch is on (tail).
Ok: taillight comes on.
- Inspect fuse (fr fog)
- Remove the fr fog fuse from the instrument panel junction block.
- Measure the resistance of the fuses.
Standard resistance:
below 1 
- Inspect fog light bulb
- Remove the fog light bulb.
- Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 2 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 1, then check that the bulb illuminates.
Ok: bulb illuminates.
- Inspect front fog light relay (marking: fr fog)
- Remove the front fog light relay from the no. 6 Relay block.
- Measure the resistance of the relay.
Standard resistance 
- Check wire harness (battery - main body ecu)
- Disconnect the e17 ecu connector.
- Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.
Standard voltage 
- Check wire harness (front fog light relay - battery)
- Remove the front fog light relay from the no. 6 Relay block.
- Measure the voltage of the relay block.
Standard voltage 
- Check wire harness (front fog light relay - front fog light and body ground)
- Remove the front fog light relay from the no. 6 Relay block.
- Disconnect the a11 and a28 front fog light connectors.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard resistance 
Replace instrument panel junction block (main body ecu)
- Check wire harness (dimmer switch - main body ecu and body ground)
- Disconnect the e12 headlight dimmer switch connector.
- Disconnect the e17 main body ecu connector.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard resistance 
- Inspect fog light switch
- Remove the headlight dimmer switch.
- Measure the resistance of the switch.
Standard resistance 
Repair or replace harness and connector (headlight dimmer switch - body ground)

Your preferred driving position (the position of the driver’s seat) can
be recorded and recalled by pressing a button.
Two different driving positions can be recorded into memory.
Recording procedure
Check that the shift lever is in p.
Turn the engine switch to the “on” position (ve ...
How to proceed with troubleshooting
Notice:
Dtcs for the can communication system are as
follows: u0073, u0100, u0105, u0121, u0122, u0123,
u0124, u0126, u0129, c1280, c1296, c1297, and
b1499.
Refer to the troubleshooting procedures of each
system if dtcs regarding the can communication
system are not output.

Symptom confirmation and diagnostic trouble code
Hint:
The diagnostic system in the rav4 has various
functions.
The first function is the diagnostic trouble code
(dtc) check. A dtc is a code stored in the ecu
memory whenever a malfunction in the signal circuits
to the ecu occurs. In a dtc check, a previous
malfunction's dtc can be ch ...
