BRAKE BOOSTER ASSEMBLY
ON−VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. OPERATING CHECK
(a) Depress the brake pedal several times with the engine
OFF and check that there is no change in the pedal re-
serve distance.
(b) Depress the brake pedal and start the engine.
If the pedal goes down slightly, operation is normal.
2. AIR TIGHTNESS CHECK
(a) Start the engine and stop it after 1 or 2 minutes. Depress
the brake pedal several times slowly.
If the pedal goes down farthest at the 1st time, but gradually
rises after at the 2nd or 3rd time, the booster is air tight.
(b) Depress the brake pedal while the engine is running, and
stop the engine with the pedal depressed.
If there is no change in the pedal reserve travel after holding the
pedal for 30 seconds, the booster is air−tight.

FOREWORD
This repair manual has been prepared to provide essential
information on body panel repair methods (including cutting
and welding operations, but excluding painting) for the
TOYOTA RAV4 5-DOOR.
Applicable models: SXA11 series
This manual consists of body repair methods, exploded diaœ
grams and illustrations of the body components and other
information relating to body panel replacement such as hanœ
dling precautions, etc. However, it should be noted that the
front fenders of the TOYOTA model is bolted on and require
no welding.
When repairing, don't cut and join areas that are not shown in
this manual. Only work on the specified contents to maintain
body strength.
Body construction will sometimes differ depending on specifiœ
cations and country of destination. Therefore, please keep in
mind that the information contained herein is based on veœ
hicles for general destinations.
For the repair procedures and specifications other than colliœ
sion-damaged body components of the TOYOTA RAV 4
5-DOOR refer to the following repair manuals.
If you require the above manuals, please contact your TOœ
YOTA Dealer.
All information contained in this manual is the most up-to-
date at the time of publication. However, specifications and
procedures are subject to change without prior notice.

DTC P0125 Insufficient Coolant Temp. for Closed Loop
Fuel Control
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
To obtain a high purification rate for the CO, HC and NOx components of the exhaust gas, a three−way cata-
lytic converter is used, but for the most efficient use of the three−way catalytic converter, the air−fuel ratio
must be precisely controlled so that it is always close to the stoichiometric air−fuel ratio.
The oxygen sensor has the characteristic whereby its output voltage changes suddenly in the vicinity of the
stoichiometric air−fuel ratio. This characteristic is used to detect the oxygen concentration in the exhaust
gas and provide feedback to the computer for control of the air−fuel ratio.
When the air−fuel ratio becomes LEAN, the oxygen concentration in the exhaust increases and the oxygen
sensor informs the ECM of the LEAN condition (small electromotive force: 0 V).
When the air−fuel ratio is RICHER than the stoichiometric air−fuel ratio the oxygen concentration in the ex-
haust gas is reduced and the oxygen sensor informs the ECM of the RICH condition (large electromotive
force: 1 V).
The ECM judges by the electromotive force from the oxygen sensor whether the air−fuel ratio is RICH or
LEAN and controls the injection time accordingly. However, if malfunction of the oxygen sensor causes out-
put of abnormal electromotive force, the ECM is unable to perform accurate air−fuel ratio control.

HINT:
After confirming DTC P0125 use the OBDII scan tool or TOYOTA hand−held tester to confirm voltage output
of oxygen sensor from ”CURRENT DATA”.
If voltage output of oxygen sensor is 0 V, oxygen sensor circuit may be open or short.

DTC P0171 System too Lean (Fuel Trim)
DTC P0172 System too Rich (Fuel Trim)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
”Fuel trim” refers to the feedback compensation value compared against the basic injection time. Fuel trim
includes short−term fuel trim and long−term fuel trim.
”Short−term fuel trim” is the short−term fuel compensation used to maintain the air−fuel ration at its ideal
theoretical value. The signal from the oxygen sensor indicates whether the air−fuel ratio is RICH or LEAN
compared to the ideal theoretical value, triggering a reduction in fuel volume if the air−fuel ratio is rich, and
an increase in fuel volume if it is lean.
”Long−term fuel trim” is overall fuel compensation carried out long−term to compensate for continual devi-
ation of the short−term fuel trim from the central value due to individual engine differences, wear over time
and changes in the usage environment.
If both the short−term fuel trim and long−term fuel trim are LEAN or RICH beyond a certain value, it is de-
tected as a malfunction and the MIL lights up.

When the air fuel ratio feedback is stable after engine warning
up, the fuel trim is considerably in error on the RICH side

HINT:
When DTC P0171 is recorded, the actual air−fuel ratio is on the LEAN side. When DTC P0172 is re-
corded, the actual air−fuel ratio is on the RICH side.
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the air−fuel ratio is LEAN and DTC P0171 is detected. The MIL then
comes on.
If the total of the short−term fuel trim value and long−term fuel trim value is within ±25 %, the system
is functioning normally.

DTC P0300 Random / Multiple Cylinder Misfire
Detected
DTC P0301 Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected
DTC P0302 Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected
DTC P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
DTC P0304 Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Misfire: The ECM uses the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft position sensor to monitor changes in
the crankshaft rotation for each cylinder.
The ECM counts the number of times the engine speed change rate indicates that misfire has occurred. And
when the misfire rate equals or exceeds the count indicating that the engine condition has deteriorated, the
MIL lights up.
If the misfire rate is high enough and the driving conditions will cause catalyst overheating, the MIL blinks
when misfiring occurs.

When the 2 or more codes for a misfiring cylinder are recorded repeatedly but no Random Misfire code is
recorded, it indicates that the misfires were detected and recorded at different times.

DTC P0753, P0758 Shift Solenoid A/B Electrical Malfunc-
tion (Shift Solenoid Valve No. 1/No. 2)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Shifting from 1st to O/D is done in combination with ON and OFF of the shift solenoid valves No. 1 and No.
2 controlled by ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls
the remaining normal shift solenoid valve to allow the vehicle to be operated safely (Fail safe function).
Fail Safe Function:
If either of the shift solenoid valve circuits develops an open or a short, the ECM turns the other shift solenoid
ON and OFF to shift to the gear positions shown in the table below. The ECM also turns the shift solenoid
valve SL OFF at the same time. If both solenoids are malfunction, hydraulic control cannot be done electroni-
cally so it must be done manually.
Manual shifting as shown in the following table must be done. (In the case of a short circuit, the ECM stops
sending current to the short circuited solenoid).
HINT:
Check the shift solenoid valve No. 1 when DTC P0753 is output and check the shift solenoid valve No. 2
when DTC P0758 is output.
