Hey all, I had this issue a couple weeks ago of my LX470 isn't starting which led me to replacing my starter last week. Everything with that went well and has started daily since the repair. When I was going to leave work today, I had a click, no crank no start. Literally the only thing I could think of was that I had been using my spare key all week opposed to my normal one I had used prior to the starter replacement. The only thing I could think of maybe is fusible links? Also my anti-theft light does turn off when I place the key in the ignition. Any suggestions? Thanks all

Still no go, leaning towards fusible link? Fuel pump working, click from the starter relay, new starter installed

Fuel pump only runs, when crankshaft turns (cranking). No Crank, no fuel pump. Pump/motor we hear sitting in driver seat, IG key on. Is, brake booster motor.

"IF" click, "IS" from starter. Then EFI fuse/box okay. This again, is "IF", click from starter. A starter click, would indicates power getting to starter. We'll typically see battery gauge drop, as IG key turned to start, if power is getting to starter. This indicate a bad starter, often bendix drive failure. The "click" is, contacts making connection (pulled down contacts) moving plunger, pushing bendix drive out.

One thing I do with all Denso and Toyota Denso remains. I reseat contacts. Saves on redoing starter job.

Is this no crank no starter the same after, as before starter replaced?
Do you have second battery & switching?

This is the no crank that is similar as before the starter was replaced. And no I don't have a second battery. So you're saying I have to get back into where the starter is? 😭 Here's a link of whatI have going on. Here

No. Same no start, no crank. Indicate starter was not your issue.
You may have a short in back if ignition switch. I've neven delt with, but have read about in mih8mud.
