Tacoma shuts off while driving. Please help.

fingers crossed this is the culprit and fixing the wiring solves your problem.

 

Yea buddy! Get some!

 

Well anybody know what wires these are for?

 

better start soldering and sleeving those wires.

Now.

 

Under the steering column

 

That's near the column right?

Prolly where they piggy-backed the alarm into the harness.

 

Right meow

 

That might be your problem op, lol

 

Nope sorry not a clue. Anyone got a wiring diagram?

 

thought everyone would get a kick out of this as well. Starting to get really worried about my purchase.

 

I think there might be a relic from the dark ages in there.

 

No that's fine.. it's just sorry because it's been doing it's job

 

It's just dirty...

 

It's sorry too, that it couldn't last another week.

 

Dude I need a teenage intern to type stuff into my phone! LOL..

 

Maybe your starter has a short in it.

 

Yes he has a short in the wiring. Just need to know what said wiring does. After marker alarm, ignition. That's the question now, I think.

 

any idea on the solid blue wire?

 

OP I'm super psyched that you're working on your own truck! thats cool! Those wires do look crappy and they should be fixed. I don't want to sound like a wet blanket but there's a good chance that's not related to your stall issue. Usually an alarm issue will only keep the vehicle from starting once it's running it will stay running. But then again, if those wires come from the ignition switch and then fan out into the electrical system it could cause weird stuff to happen. Keep going man good luck!
