RAV4 air suspension failure

My 2005 Toyota RAV4 (gasoline engine) is acting up. The air suspension seems totally dead. It won't lift, and the car's leaning. I'm getting error messages, a warning light, and the low beams are messed up. The error memory shows an error. Any ideas?

A 2005 Toyota RAV4 is experiencing air suspension failure, causing the vehicle to lean and display error messages and warning lights. The issue may be related to a faulty cable or plug connection to the compressor, as suggested by a similar past experience. It is recommended to check for a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) and have a workshop inspect the vehicle, focusing on the cable connection and the possibility of needing a compressor replacement.

Did this summary help you solve your problem?

Sounds familiar! I had a similar issue with my RAV4. Check the cable and plug connection to the compressor itself. I think there is a TSB about that.

TSB? Where exactly should I be looking for this plug connection? Is it easy to get to, or do I need to remove a bunch of stuff?

Yeah, Technical Service Bulletin. I'm no expert, but it's worth getting it checked out by a workshop. It could be the cable which is an easy fix, but could also be the compressor needs replacing. Cost me around 95€.

Thanks! I'll take it to the shop and mention the cable/plug connection and that TSB. I hope that's all it is, otherwise I'm sure it will be costly!
