    Hi guys,
    I have looked online for what could be causing my 2005 Tacoma 2.7l 5spd to not start. I changed the starter & they tested my old one and said it was already goin bad so I replaced and installed the new one. The truck turned on right away & then I turned it off & tried to turn it back on and it doesn't start anymore. All the lights come on but it doesn't even crank. My buddy said it could be the clutch switch? I was also reading that it could possibly be a failed fuel pump or maybe just a blown fuse. If it's a fuse do you guys know which fuse it might be ?

    TIA

    A few OE parts from fancy trucks
    Bad battery or battery connection.

    Bad connection on the newly installed starter.

    Bad ignition switch.

    Bad clutch interlock.

    Diagnose in that order. Simple first.

    I already took the refurbished starter they sold me & got another refurbished one. Once I install I will check for those things, but everything was connected. Might check out battery next. Ty
