Hi!
I have strange problem with my '97 FJZ80
How it began:
1. Car did not start, it was just some click (starter?) and nothing happend.
2. After several tries it started.
3. I turned car off and tried to start again.
4. It started with some high frequency noise, A.T oil/temp, oil temp and brake indicators came in.
5. I saw kind of smoke came from starter.
Now when I try to turn car off (key in position 'lock'), it looks like something (maybe starter?)
still tries to spin the engine (with terrible noise), so finally I cannot switch car off at all!!!
I ended up with disconected battery because this is only way to stop engine spinning.
When I am connecting back battery and key still in position lock (or no key inserted at all)
it still tries to spin engine.
Any ideas what the problem is?
Regards,
Misha
PS: actually, I did not expect something like that from TLC at 76K miles...
