2002 Land Cruiser Just Stopped Running

[angerswine]

Literally. I'm waiting for a tow truck. Is there anything obvious that I should check? Everything turns on, it just doesn't turn over. Has anyone else encountered this?

Did it turn off while driving, or its not starting?

It stalled at a light and I can't restart it.

Mine has stalled a couple times when I've come to a stop, but it was never consistent and I never figured anything out. It also started right back up the 2-3 times it stalled. Please us know what you find out, and good luck!

Throttle body dirty?

Replace the 20 amp EFI fuse with a higher amp fuse. It is located in the large fuse box under the hood.

Check battery voltage. Did it happen at night with lights on? If it gets much below 10v while running it will quit. Ask me how I know. Just replaced my alternator at 166K.

If it's possible, do a full on diagnostic of the electrical system. It's likely dropping voltage somewhere. That amp is a possibility, but in my case, I had a miswired O2 sensor and it caused mine to quit while running.

Not at night. Checked voltage. All good.

Good idea. Will do now.

Wife just told me that a poof of smoke cafe from the passenger seat last week. Seems like something I should have been told about.

You might need something like this then:

Lucas Replacement Smoke Kit

My Land Cruiser stalled while driving. All power is good, it would not crank over. Jumped starter relay and had ignition on cranking, but still won't start. I'm thinking possibley crank sensor? Have any of you encountered this?

This might be the funniest thing I have seen.

Thank you to whomever merged the thread. I was trying to reply to this one with more detail and created a new one on accident.

if it cranks (turns over and will not start) that is one set of problems.... if when you turn the key and nothing happens that is another...

often documented on here problems with the relay that controls the FI if it turns but does not start

The relay or the FUSE. Also check your crank position sensor wires as mine were not run properly after a itming belt job and the serpentine belt chewed it up and would not start my vehicle.
