Toyota RAV4 - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues - Page 6

The relay is the ECM relay and it's in the fuse relay center under the hood near the battery. there is an EFI fuse alson and then theirs two more fuses after the relay ones fuel pump the other ECM. If the check engine light doesn't come on with the key the relay or the ECM fuse is blown if only the fuel pump does'nt work then the fuel pump fuse is blown or the fuel pump is bad.

There is a ground wire on the back of the dash cluster that may be broken, you'll have to remove the dash cluster (phillips screwdriver and tabs) and check it with a multimeter. ( 0 ohms from a known good ground is perfect).

The battery itself isn't holding a charge or the car won't start? It is easy to see if the battery is dead with a simple voltage meter at any auto parts store. Most RAV4s need a new battery after about 8 years on the road in my experience. If the battery still has a charge but the car won't start, you have a problem with the cables from the battery to the starter.

You can take it back to the dealer, and have them change the battery, or go to Autozone, buy the battery and do it yourself. They can show you how to do it. And which battery it takes. It's not hard to do. Good luck.
