Tacoma shuts off while driving. Please help.

Hang in there! if you dump it somebody will buy it cheap fix it and have a truck that runs

 

i thought the same thing with mine and still got no code ive had it happen twice on 2 different tacomas my 2013 as well as my 2016 both bought new. neither threw codes and both did exactly the same thing by stalling and eventually starting back up.

 

I know, I'm with ya.. but he should fix what is obviously broken in front of him first

 

Ill clean up what i found and ask the dealer about the sensor. Thanks again for the help

 

Just follow these instructions for the cps

 

Strange question but are you turning, or braking when this happens or have you noticed? Just going straight down the road, down a hill, up a hill, huge pot hole?

 

Hows it run??


lolollol

 

Happens while driving and sometimes sitting at idle in park.

 

When it first started it wouldnt always start right back up. I would turn the key and get nothing but lights, gauges wouldnt move and no crank. Now it seems to crank and start immediately after a stall.

 

Seems like my rpm is running low. In park no AC its around maybe 600. While driving it hops a lot inbetween gears and does seem a little sluggish.

 

im guessing a faulty immobilizer will cause a stall? Anyone want to chime in?

 

The immobilizer is only active on start up. It should not cause the truck to shut off.

 

why would someone do this?

 

I cant believe what im finding right now.

 

keeps getting better

 

Nice jackpot someone left you. Keep going and don't change direction. Only a suggestion but perhaps disconnect the negative battery cable when rooting around under dash.

 

First thing i did. I cant figure out why there is a lead coming off the ignition wire

 

Can someone tell me what the wire black with red strip from the ignition harness is?

 

Wow!

 

Any help with wire colors? Maybe a diagram
