Flooded 2023 trd sport. 4x4

no comms right now checked all the fuses and relays everything ok except for the central pink 30 amp fuse that is suppoused to power the back sliding window changed it and keeps blowing it, dissasembled the back of the cabin to see if the motor was flooded too but no water on that part everything clean, disconnected all the line in the passenger side also the passenger front and rear doors and keep blowing it. looked at the diagram and there is a relay maybe the relay is making this fuse to blow the thing is already blowed 5 fuses @ 8 dlls each in autozone prefered to order 10 fuses in ebay lol. all the other windows in working condition up and down side mirrors in working condition dome light working horn working all lights working already checked all the ground connectors

thomasburk when the truck arrived like 2 months ago there was still moisture as you comment i removed all the carpets and with Mcallen TX wather around 100 right now everything is more than dry!!

 

Let's ignore that fuse for now and focus on getting communication going, once we get to that there's much better ways to find the short than to keep popping fuses.

First we need to determine if the truck has a Network Gateway ECU or not, if it does it will be on the right end of the dash. It has a single 30 pin connector.

 

Dammit man. : /
You won it because the myriad of body shops that make good money fixing and flipping salvage titled Tacomas didn't want anything to do with it.

 

It’s a type four flood damage, total loss.

 

Someone laughed all the way to the bank.
How high's the water momma? 5 feet high and rising.

 

Have you tried turning the engine over by hand? Of the water was over the dash, it was in the engine too. And if your assumptions are correct and they were driving it, you most likely will need a new engine as the rods are most likely bent from hydrolocking. I wouldn’t spend another dime until you know the condition of the engine/transmission.
