Bumping a 4.7 V8 over without a key?

[climber8483]

I'm going to be looking at a 2005 Sequoia that was softly rolled and the owner has lost the keys. Is there a way to bump the engine so that I can do a compression test without having to pull the intake to short a wire from the battery to the starter solenoid?

Thanks,
Brittain

this would have to be done from the starter relay in the under hood fuse box. Pin 3 of that relay is to your + to starter solenoid ( should have a pin diagram on the toyota relay). If you jump this it will activate your starter bypassing everything else.
