Monitor Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2025 Toyota RAV4, 2024 Toyota RAV4, 2023 Toyota RAV4, 2022 Toyota RAV4, and 2021 Toyota RAV4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

While the engine is being cranked, positive battery voltage is applied to terminal STA of the ECM. If the starter signal (STA) is not detected by the ECM when the engine is started, it determines that there is a malfunction in the STA circuit. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.
