Chris were you able to get your truck started?

 

nope. we checked as much of the elctrical as we could today. pulled a bunch of fuses and put a connectivity checker on the coil pack plugs.

 

This morning I found the service manual for 2005+ Tacomas I will look tonight when I get home from work and see if it says anything that might help.

 

Thanks man

 

Chris the section for no spark on your plugs is below which most I know we tried that day not sure if you have done any of these since. Not sure if this helps much. Let me know if you need something different and I will look.

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK IGNITION COIL ASSEMBLY AND PERFORM
SPARK TEST
(a) Check for DTCs.
NOTICE:If any DTC is present, perform troubleshooting
in accordance with a procedure for that DTC.
(b) Check that sparks occur.
(1) Remove the ignition coils.
(2) Using a 16 mm plug wrench, remove the spark
plugs.
(3) Install the spark plugs to each ignition coil, and
connect the ignition coil connectors.
(4) Disconnect the 6 injector connectors.
(5) Ground the spark plugs.
(6) Check if sparks occur at each spark plug while
the engine is being cranked.
NOTICE:
• Be sure to ground the spark plug when
checking.
• Replace the ignition coil if it receives an

1.Turn ignition switch ON.
2.Check that there is battery positive (+)
voltage at ignition coil positive (+) terminal.

NG Folowing test 1 and 2.
OK Go to next step.

1. Check that the wiring between VVT sensor
and ECM.
Result
NG Repair wiring between VVT sensor and ECM
OK repair VVT sensor

(5) Check resistance in crankshaft position sensor.
Standard resistance: 1850 to 2450 ohms

Wow that's good stuff. Where did you find that?

 

I downloaded it from a torrent, if you have a way to download I can get you the file name. If not let me know and I can find another way to get you a copy. After I posted that I saw you asking on the forums so I'm sure someone will have an idea that may help out.

 

Cool. I don't have any torrent stuff but what you put might be enough. I'm headed back there this afternoon to try some things.

 

Good luck. If you still need help on Saturday I could come help out?

 

Likewise, during the week its bit tough due to the distance, but if you still need help on Sat or Sun let me know!

 

Thanks I'll let you guys know.

 

Chris, this towing company in Mobil called 24/7 Towing & Emergency Service 251-317-1450 looks like they could get your truck back up to civilization maybe by towing it forward up the other hill. Then we could dolly tow it back to P Cola. Don't know how much it will cost.

 

I'll check it out, thanks

 

I take it we are all taking a break for awhile??

 

Since I'm pretty much the life of the offroading party, we are pretty much grounded until I'm up and running again. (There needs to be a sarcasm font)

 

I just got up and running myself..Had to send the S/C in for a re-build.

 

When is the new ECU spposed to be in?

 

Thursday at the lateat

 

Damnit I missed this ;(
