    Thank you so much for the specific electrical pathway! My 2003 would lose all power only when I turned the key all the way to start. I watched your video, then just unplugged and re-plugged that fuse you mentioned. Now it starts fine.
    I'm relived because I thought I would have to open up the car's computer again and resolder power resistor connections again.
    That's a whole other can of worms with these 2003 Rav4's. The computers go bad after 120k miles, act worst whenever the temperature gets to freezing, and cause the transmission to slip down a gear or hard shift. Once it was so bad it was actually stuck in 3rd gear so the engine would steam up when idle.
    I fixed the computer myself, but not perfectly. It still delays going into 4th or 5th gear, so hard shifts, whenever it gets cold outside.
    Edit* Oh, and I had two different transmission shops tell me nothing is mechanically wrong with the transmission. They both suggested I replace the computer for $1,000. Nah... I kind of like having a finicky computer. It's like my car is mentally ill, just like me!

    Great information. I checked all the fuses tapped on the starter and nothing seemed to work. Then I got the remote really close and push the button hard and got it to activate and it started right up. So don’t forget to check your remote battery.

    This video is so clear and there's so much expertise being conveyed that I feel like I'm cheating somehow by watching it. And I think you just solved my no-crank issue. Thanks a million!

    Excellent video! My RAV4 doesn't start occasionally. You turn the key and nothing happens. If I wait a while it will startup. I think it is probably the relay. Thanks for the troubleshooting advice.

      @@lukeneave I took it in & they did the whole scan computer process & my car did not show anything. It would not duplicate for them. It has worked fine since & that was over a month ago! Weird, huh.
