    I recently had magnuson sc installed and the wire for the cooling pump was tied in with the raptor lights add a fuse in the 10 a inj fuse spot. I removed the raptor lights and put a regular 10a fuse back into inj fuse spot. Truck was running fine for days with this. The fuse was kind of jagged from pliers so i bought new 10a fuses, went to change it and attempted to start tacoma without inj fuse in and it obviously did not start. I put fuse back in which is not blown and it is still not starting. I attempted to restart computer by taking negative battery terminal off for a couple of minutes and it still will just turn over but not start, I'm afraid of burning out the starter. The truck is turning over but not starting. I don't know if I messed the computer up or what. Anyone have any idea?

    Double check your fuse first. Is it seated correctly, or possibly just a bad fuse.

    Do you have another key you can try? May be a transponder issue.

    Otherwise I would try pulling and reseating all fuses and check your fuses in the cab also.

    I can't believe that was it, but yes the fuse was not all the way in. I feel so stupid, but so relieved as i was getting ready to have truck towed to shop and was stressed out of my mind. I thought for sure the fuse was in but there was another little mm or two it went down and now truck is working. Thanks so much!!
