Howdy y'all! A few days ago I went to try to start my car (it's my daily, probably sat for a day?), had power and everything, I went to turn the key and nothing. No click, power is gone, no sound. So I look up some stuff saying it could be a starter problem so I get parts to replace within...

Hi all, I am on a slow baseline of a new to me truck (details in signature) that is parked for the winter where I have a chance to work on it every 2 weeks. Well, I changed the fusible links and put in a new battery last week but a starting issue remains Here's a video: 19_0218_nostart.MOV I...

Hi everyone, I am a long time reader of the forums and finally decided to come to you, the experts with a problem that has plagued me for well over a year now. I have a 2000 Hilux Surf 1KZ-TE diesel (KZN185), roughly 240,000km on the block I rebuilt the engine about 3 years ago after some...

I replaced my starter on my 09 LC as a precaution and now getting the old starter rebuilt at a local alternator/starter repair shop. I ordered a new solenoid when I ordered the new OEM starter from Toyota and took them to the repair shop. I just got a call from the shop saying he could not...

Hey out there. I'm having trouble sourcing for a starter for my '86 BJ70 diesel. I've emailed a couple Japanese companies as well as a company somewhere in Europe. I've had my identity stolen before and fishing around all over creation makes me really uncomfortable. Any tips on where I might...

So, I rebuilt the entire motor last January, and rebaselined everything. New alt, starter, fuel filter, etc. 6 months in and the starter began to fail. I'd have to bang it to get it to start. Or get a jump. So tonight I ended up replacing the starter. It was warrantied out. It's a reman...

Hello Mud Family! Question for you all. My FJ60 has trouble starting (sometimes). This issue typically happens when the car has sat for a while but is not always the case. When I crank the motor, I will just hear a click and no cranking. I will have to be very specific with my key turn to...

Hi all. Having some symptoms of something. It's a 2006. Here's a video cold starting this morning. A couple days ago I got a check engine light when I started it in the morning. Pulled the code P1445 that had to do with the Secondary Air Intake. I cleared the code and hasn't returned, but...

I posted yesterday that I was having my starter reworked because basically the pig wouldn't crank and the starter was slowing down and getting hot. I took the starter to a very reputable auto electrical shop and they replaced the contacts and plunger. I put the starter in today and hook...

These 62's with starting problems are popping up a lot, i wonder if we should ask a new diagnostic question. "Have you had water on the drivers floorboard ?" "Have you pushed the start in gear switch lately" What i am thinking is that if there was a leak from gutters down A pillar, or plugged...

My FJ60's PO, who apparently had a sort of wiring fetish, saw fit to replace the original starter motor wiring (from the loom) with a 6 foot piece of insulated lamp cord. While I'm doing my rebuild, I plan to rewire it to match the original. Does anyone have a photo or a drawing of what the...

A no-start issue has me wondering how does a starter act as it dies? Do they tend to go quickly or slowly? Does it somehow gain friction, or does it simply do nothing? Battery charger is telling me the battery is charged but everything else says otherwise... freakin mysterious pixies.

Hello everyone! I have an 80 series that's been acting up lately. For a few weeks it has been giving me a hard time in terms of hesitating to start or just clicking. I took the battery to get tested and was told that: 1. The battery is incorrect and not powerful enough (thanks O'Reilly); 2...

In a few days I'm leaving for a 2 week trip through Mexico (with several days of fairly remote off-road excursion...). Any help sorting this before I go is appreciated. I replaced my starter this week on my 1999 Land Cruiser, and now the gauge in the dash indicates no oil pressure. While I was...

Hey all, My rig has recently been having problems in the starting department, ever since i got it, it has been having the "Click" issue and about a month ago it has just not started at all. i have looked at the starter and it appears to be in good shape mechanically and electrically. I also...

hey guys, I have a 1975 FJ40 that needs a starter. I’m having a problem finding one here in central Alberta. Can anyone provide me with a part number that will work for this unit? I’ve heard a few years of FJ60 starters work but can’t seem to come up with a part number for it. I need to get this...

I have been experiencing intermittent symptoms of what seemed like either a battery issue or starter contact wear on my 2000 LX470. I have owned it for about a year with 146,000 mi. and the PO did not have much for service records, but with that many miles I would have guessed the starter...

I'm trying to convert from 24v starter to 12v using @FlyAddiction 's 1HDT 24v to 12v conversion step by step He says to connect the passengers side positive through the 5511e and a fuse to the aux fuse box. His diagram indicates its on the right hand side of the engine bay I'm trying to...

My existing starter motor (a Bosch) fitted to my 1hz motor is beginning to play up. I suspect it's the solenoid contacts or something related to that, similar to what happens with the higher quality genuine Denso starters. I'm thinking of buying a new genuine Denso starter and 'going back' to...
