Just wanted to update. After months of trouble shooting and testing and not wanting to replace parts unnecessarily I finally pulled the trigger on the ignition switch. I think dirty contacts was letting power through (testing good) but insufficient power to provide the required spark for the...

Upon reviewing the service manual these readings are within spec

Just wanted to update. I started to remove and clean the neutral safety switch but wanted to test it first. There is a connector on the passenger side near the firewall approximately where the bell housing meets the engine. I tested it for resistance and found I had approximately 100 ohms. It...

Tested battery voltage at battery key on start position versus voltage at the starter solenoid wire key on start position Key on 12.36 v at battery. Key on start position 12.2 at battery Key on start position 11.8 at starter solenoid wire Also I watched the voltage " build " (at solenoid...

I sincerely appreciate your input and patience.

The starting circuit appears sound. I haven't changed the main wire to starter or fuse able links. They did however pass voltage and resistance tests. I have not tested under load. I will perform these tests directly but as of now it's starting every time.

Thanks for the clarification. Upon further review of the electric manual I also found that the passenger kick panel ground is unrelated to the ecu or injectors. Certainly appreciate the information! Do you feel I'm on the right track with the ignition switch and cleaning the neutral safety switch?

Just wanted to update. Ground location EC is on the driver side intake manifold under the cold start injector fuel line bracket as pictured. I'm going to clean it with deoxit and see if it makes a difference. For good measure I'm replacing the ignition switch and next step is cleaning the...

Honored to have you reply Mr Jonheld. Have reviewed many of your replies to other threads. Thank you for the wealth of knowledge. Appreciate the reply and the information. I agree, based on the schematic and was trying to understand how the loose ground could cause a no crank issue. The way...

Hello mudders! I've been after an occasional long crank / no crank problem with my 92 FJ80 3FE. I've been reviewing the electrical and Haynes manuals. There is a ground EC that is supposed to be located on the air intake chamber. Is this the intake manifold or could that be Toyota speak for...
