LC 100 2003 intermittent no start (and repeated crank and cam position sensor replacements) (1 Viewer)

[lc1001000100000]

Helllllo,

Proud owner of a 2003 100 daily driver for the last 9 months! Has been a dream. Put in Vline (works great), replaced heater t’s and other baseline work.

Everything has been working great until a month or two ago. A no crank, no start issue has popped up. It’s intermittent and seems to be solved by a 5 second jump (sometimes).

Key turns, everything lights up, quiet humm from engine bay for 5 secs then nothing.

Seems to be worse a couple of hours after rain. Battery has been checked and is fine. Seems to self heal as-well which is almost more maddening hahah.

Have had a couple of codes thrown relating to cam and crank position sensors. Replaced once at Toyota (6 mo ago) and once at a local shop (last week). But the problem is back again!

Has anyone delt with something like this before?

Could it be an electrical issue causing the sensor issue?

Thanks!!

Mine did the same, a starter replacement seems to have fixed it

Yep, you were correct- replaced starter seems to be all fixed now.

No codes for me in a '99 but my "Intermittent Crank No Start" was finally solved by a fuel pump replacement.
So if it shows back up, you have a usual suspect.

Check you battery terminals. Are they aftermarket terminals? They may look clean, but I had to take a wire brush to the contact surfaces between the 2 pieces.

Dead battery this morning

Wake up a absolutely dead battery this morning. 12 month old Odyssey. This has never happened before and can't figure out what I did. Lights are on auto, nothing plugged into outlets, doors were unlocked, no interior lights left on.
