My 21 taco starts for me.

But doesn't for my wife. Pisses her off, no codes. Has anyone else experienced this?

 

Is she pushing the 4WD selector instead of the start button?

 

Is it key or push start?

 

Key, I think she's flooding it, I'm trying to keep the peace, lol

 

She doesn't drive it much, she's kinda small. If she wasn't in her 60's she is car seat size 4'7"

 

It's fuel injected, she's not flooding it.

 

Negative.

 

Same key between you, or are you using different keys?

Auto trans?

Is she pushing the brake pedal?

 

Different keys, auto, she can't drive a manual. Brake depressed but it doesn't seem matter. 37000 miles 6 cylinder,

 

Maybe she is not getting the clutch down far enough?

See the third paragraph:

It's an automatic.

 

Never mind. Haha!

 

Maybe get in the passenger seat before she gets in.
Have her get in and watch her start procedure.
My thoughts are, she has touched gas pedal at some point, or is not letting starter engage for correct amount of time.

 

Does it work with your key ?

 

Thats where I was going next. Have her try with your key.

Trucks should come with three keys. Two start the truck, one opens the tailgate. They might all be keyed alike, but the tailgate key does not have the microchip that answers to the immobilizer.

OR

Maybe the chip in one of the keys is not programmed correctly.

 

she's probably not saying the tacoma mantra .

 

I can't ever remember the second line, how's it go again?

 

Is the second key just the spare to unlock, as in it doesnt have a chip in it?

 

its not carbuerated
