"This list ...".

Uh-huh. Is there a link missing?

Or am I missing something?

 

Sorry about that. Link added.
You gotta watch those absent minded moderators.

Good day Dr. Dyno. I appreciate the list of codes, and will definitely save a link to the page for future reference. Until my wife and I recently purchased a 2006 RAV4 used, I wasn't aware of the C, B, and U codes. My only experience has been with the P codes for engine diagnosis. However, with this vehicle, I was shocked to learn of the many, many sensors this car has. My first excursion into the "world of sensors" began when I replaced the intermediate steering shaft. I wasn't aware that there was a "wheel position" sensor sending information to the other systems. My NOT aligning the steering wheel correctly caused several interesting problems, but suffice it to say that the VSC and TRAC lights came on, and the car automatically applied the rear brakes, and cut the throttle at the same time. That would have been interesting on a highway.
So not to make a long story even longer, is there an OBDII diagnostic tool I can get that will show any P, C, B, or U codes? So far I've used the jumper wire technique to read them, but would prefer one scan tool to see them all, without having to spend more than I paid for the car. Any help would be much appreciated.
It's probably asking too much, but do any diagnostic tools out there also deal with TPMS? My light for that is on all the time, and my wire jumping showed that two of the pressure sensors are not working at this time.

 

OBDII is primarily only for emissions related codes. You need an All-Systems Reader to access the many other ECUs on cars today. Before I bought my Autel MaxiDiag Elite MD802 for $300+ (what did you pay for your RAV4?) I used the jumper method. I use it to scan my cars and ones friends are having issues with. It may take 20 minutes just for it to run thru all system on some cars. I'm sure there are less expensive equivalents out there but I stopped looking after buying mine. (I now see them on eBay for $100.)

The TPMS system is much simpler. All five wheels have to be transmitting to the receiver or you'll get the light either blinking or on solid, as explained on other threads. Since you can't replace their batteries I just had all five of my wheel sensors replaced at Town Fair Tire for $200.

 

Hey Dr. Dyno, thank you for your quick reply. I meant all-systems type reader, not OBDII reader. I've been using OBDII readers for years now on my other cars to diagnose problems, but like I said, when we got the RAV4, I began to realize just how many systems and sensors there are, and how they interact with each other. My experience with the steering wheel position sensor was a wake up call (I realigned the steering wheel position relative to the front wheels and the problem hasn't reoccured).
Anyway, I'll look into the Autel MaxiDiag Elite MD802, and see if I can find one for a reasonable price. You asked how much we paid for our RAV4. In this market, with the value of the dollar falling, we ended up spending $6000 for it. 2.4L 4 cylinder, and it runs great. Mileage is up there, but not crazy for a Toyota, and we don't drive as much as we used to. Wife works from home and I am retired. But we were driving her 2001 toyota corolla to a doctors appointment, when some moron decided to run a stop sign in front of us. That totalled out the corolla at about 350000 miles......So my wife needed another vehicle. She is getting used to driving it, and seems to love the somewhat larger and higher RAV4 (who would have thunk it). But I want to make sure all systems on it are operating properly.
Any other advice you can offer would be appreciated. I get the flashng lights of the TPMS system every time we start the car, but I am not sure if the wheel sensors are dead, or if the system could be confused by the dealership changing tires and moving them to different positions. It would probably make more sense to just replace them all and be sure of their age. I understand that the batteries in them are glued in place, and cannot be changed. Thanks again for your time.

 

While I am here, can the Autel MaxiDiag Elite MD802 clear the TPMS light? Can it be used to have the car learn new wheel sensors, or does that need to be done with another scanner that is exclusively for TPMS systems?
