    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I think the three wires are 5v reference, ground, and sensor output. But I don't know the resistance spec off the top of my head

    I found it in the fsm. Crank sensor resistance is good.

    @Squeaky Penguin should be here soon to give me a hand. Going to disconnect the fuel line and crank and see what happens.

    Busy last couple of days, after my last trip out I made some changes.
    First was to remove my rear swing out tire carrier. I wanted to see if I liked it gone. And because my fuel cans were mounted on it, I added a Front Runner dual fuel can mount to my rack. I also placed my spare and license plate up there out of the way as well.

    And because I keep my tool roll and first aid kit in my cab, which is always in the way when my daughter rides in the back seat, I added an ammo can to the bed to hold them and other small items securely. I ordered a set of ammo can locking pins that will get placed on there later.

    And yesterday I swapped out my 600# springs for a new set of 650# springs and raised the front of the truck a little.

    And today I installed a set of Energy Suspension polyurethane body mounts and moved my HAM radio face.

    It's alive! Thanks for the help fellas. It may have been a bad connection on the fuel pump end.

    Really good looking work bud! I meant to check out that ceiling unit you have installed. Looks really functional.

    I went with the Hilux version, it mounted up perfectly, but the contour lines for the head liner were a little off.

    Need a little help today. Went to start the truck and it wouldn’t start threw codes p2103- throttle actuator control motor circuit high and p2111 throttle actuator control system stuck open. It was was running fine when I parked it . I was going to start by cleaning the throttle body after work today. I’m still not use to working on toyota’s yet so if I’m missing something let me know please

    Seems evident- bad actuator on the throttle body. Ie, you have a drive by wire system. I'd start looking there. Check the wires for damage, meter out the wiring and actuator and see if there is some sort of mechanical issue with it.
