Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Tc and cg terminal circuit
Description
Dtc output mode is set by connecting terminals tc and cg of the dlc3.
The dtcs are displayed by blinking the srs warning light.
Hint:
- Make sure that dtc b1281 has not been output. If dtc b1281 has been output, refer to the multiplex communication system.
- When each warning light keeps blinking, a ground short in the wiring of terminal tc of the dlc3 or an internal ground short in each ecu is suspected.
