3rd gen no crank so start

I have a 2020 toyota tacoma Trd off road 6 M/t. I drove through a puddle and it died mid puddle. engine was out of water but exhaust was submerged. got pulled out. at first when i tried to start it just clicked. battery was at 12.3 volts. tried to bump start with no avail. have yet to pull plugs to check for hydro lock but i highly doubt it. also no water in oil. flat towed home and now it does click or anything. have yet to check fuses or starter. Anyone have any ideas? TYIA

 

Any scan tool codes?

 

get a new battery
cheapest lead acid from costco or walmart

 

I’d further make sure your engine didn’t pull water, before you attempt to start.

 

Try to turn the engine over by hand (socket/breaker bar on the crank bolt) 1st, if it does not turn over then pull the plugs and check for Hydrolock... With good tight rings with oil on them, it can take a while for water to leak past the rings and into the crankcase (oil pan)...

Sorry you are having this issue, but I have seen it many times... all you need is enough water to splash up into the intake and it is over... sadly..

Hope it is something simple, best of luck to ya...

 

Any updates??

 

I’ve never “bump” started my truck. Do you have to push the csc button in order for it to work?
