    My 2011 Tacoma’s power steering just went out. The AC light on the button starts flashing about 10 seconds after I turn it on. I left it sitting for a week when I went on vacation and it just began having this problem. The battery light on the dash is on, but it fires up just fine. Has anyone else had this problem or know what may be going on?

    Sounds like it threw the belt, have you looked under the hood?

    Check all the pulleys, odds are one of them is loose or locked up since the belt came off.
