Looking to move on from my 2006 Land Cruiser (~240,000 miles), which I've had for the past ~7 years. I’ve kept the truck in very good condition, and maintained it meticulously over since I bought it. I have 7 years of maintenance records available. Since buying it, I had a trailer hitch installed, and just put new KO2's on it in March 2023 (not pictured). Several months ago, I started to have issues where the truck would crank fine, but wouldn’t run, which I'm understanding is an infamous problem with LC 100s. Diagnostics pointed to the immobilizer; my usual mechanic said that it would have to go to a dealership, so I had it towed to a local Toyota dealer. The dealer tried replacing the keys / remotes (transponders), and that didn’t work. So they replaced the immobilizer ECU, and that didn’t work either. The Cruser is back with the dealership now. According to them (video linked below), they have identified the issue as a short in the two wires between the immobilizer ECU and the engine ECU and that “finding the short is the hard part.” They think the issue is at the junction block and wire harnesses coming out of the ECU, but aren’t sure that’s actually the issue and said they’d have to pull the dash to confirm. They quoted a ridiculous price for parts and labor ( to even be able to confirm what the problem is, and maybe fix it. I understand there are some possible 'creative' fixes but I don't have the time, energy, or know-how to pursue them. This would make a great project for someone who does.
