| Title: BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE SYSTEM (w/o Vacuum Brake Booster): Abnormal Brake Pedal Response on First Depression; 2019 - 2021 MY RAV4 RAV4 HV [02/2019 - 12/2021] | ||
|
Abnormal Brake Pedal Response on First Depression |
DESCRIPTION
If the vehicle has been stopped without opening or closing the driver door for a long period of time, the electronically controlled brake system will not be ready and sufficient fluid pressure may not be stored in the accumulator. In this case, the brake pedal response may not be the same as usual the first time the brake pedal is depressed. This is not a malfunction.

PROCEDURE
|
1. |
BRAKE PROBLEM CHECK |
(a) Check the conditions at the time the problem occurred.
(1) Whether a warning light illuminated or the buzzer sounded.
(2) The number of times the ignition switch was turned to ON since the latest symptom occurred.
(3) Frequency of the symptom.
|
|
2. |
CHECK VEHICLE |
(a) Turn the ignition switch off.
(b) Depress the brake pedal within 2 minutes of opening the driver door and check the response of the brake pedal.
(c) Release the brake pedal and wait for 2 minutes without depressing the brake pedal, opening or closing the driver door or operating the ignition switch.
(d) After 2 seconds or more have elapsed, depress the brake pedal and check that the first depression response is different to successive depression responses.
HINT:
Compare the response of the brake pedal when the system is in sleep mode and when the stroke simulator is operating.
