2006 TOYOTA RAV4 brake sensor

CHASSIS - 4WD SYSTEM CH-66
4WD SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The 4WD system of the ’06 RAV4 uses an active torque control 4WD system.
It is a compact, lightweight, and high performance 4WD system that optimally controls the torque
distribution to the front and rear wheels through the electric control coupling in the rear differential.
ACTIVE TORQUE CONTROL 4WD SYSTEM
1. General
Based on information provided by various sensors, the 4WD ECU controls the amperage that is applied
to the electric control coupling, in order to transmit drive torque to the rear wheels when needed, and in
the amount needed. The following describes the features of the active torque control 4WD system.
Traction performance
Realizes stable start-off and acceleration performance
Driving stability performanceRealizes stable cornering performance
Fuel economyRealizes better fuel economy by transmitting drive torque to the rear
wheels when needed, in the amount needed.
A four-wheel drive lock switch has been provided. This enables the driver to select between the AUTO
and LOCK modes by operating the switch. The system optimally controls the torque distribution to the
front and rear wheels in the respective modes.

AUTOOFF
Optimally distributes drive torque to the front and rear wheels.
Ensures optimal start-off performance during a start-off, based on
information provided by various sensors.
Suppresses the tight corner braking phenomenon* during low-speed
cornering.
Reduces the amount of torque distribution to the rear wheels and
improves fuel economy when the system judges that the vehicle is
traveling steadily.
Disengages the 4WD during braking deceleration.
LOCKON
Distributes the maximum torque limit to the rear wheels.
Distributes the maximum torque limit to the rear wheels during
start-off.
Distributes optimal torque during low-speed cornering.
Disengages the 4WD during braking deceleration.
Disengages the LOCK mode and transfers to the AUTO mode when
the vehicle speed exceeds 40 km / h (25 mph).
*: Tight corner braking phenomenon: a condition in which the brakes are applied due to a rotational difference
between the front and rear wheels, such as during low-speed cornering in the 4WD mode.
The 4WD ECU effects cooperative control with the skid control ECU, in order to control the drive torque
distribution to the front and rear wheels in accordance with information received from the skid control
ECU. These controls ensure a smooth acceleration and driving stability.

4WD ECU
Controls the amperage that is applied to the electromagnetic
solenoid of the electric control coupling based on the signals
provided by the sensors in order to optimally distribute drive torque
in accordance with driving conditions.
ECMOutputs signals such as the shift position signal, throttle position
signal, and crankshaft position signal to the 4WD ECU.
Skid Control ECUOutputs signals such as the vehicle speed signal and deceleration
signal to the 4WD ECU.
Electric Control CouplingDistributes drive torque in accordance with the amperage applied
by the 4WD ECU.
