    Hello. I have a 2006 tacoma manual transmission. I noticed my clutch start cancel switch was not working. I tried to replace the switch and that did not work. I tested the fuse in the engine compartment and I'm getting 12 volts on both sides of the fuse. Tested the fused under the dash and same thing. The wiring is showing .03 volts at the connection to the switch. Anyone know what the next step is to test? I'm not great with electrical and figure someone here might be able to help me out. Thanks.

    What wire is only showing .03v.
    The purple or the green wire?
    Purple is powered by the 7.5A STA fuse.
    The STA Fuse is only powered when CRANKING.
    Green is powered by the 10A IG1 No. 2 fuse.

    When the switch is working properly, the the power goes through the switch, and out to the Yellow wire.

    Those wires don’t match any of my diagrams.
    What does the switch look like?

    Well. I am not a smart man. I just looked and found the correct connection hidden behind the dash from when i last took it apart. I tried it before and it didnt seem to fit. Well it fits. The plug I was using was for the glass break sensor. Thanks for helping me through that haha.
