Hey everyone! im new here and to toyota. i bought this car to drive daily for a gas saver bc my truck is quite the opposite. anways,i drove home the other day and the car was fine. about an hour later i come back out to leave and BAM it wont start.. i checke all the fuses under the hood and behind the coin spot in the dash. my guess is fuel pump, but like i said im new to toyota and not sure if there are specific things i could check to see if it may be something more common that happens on these cars. anyone have any ideas?? Thanks, Jon

 

Have you checked for ign spark when the engine is cranking over?

 

Yeah its getting spark. And all fuses are good is there a relay that could be keeping it from starting. My truck is in the shop so I'm trying to fix. The car so I can get around lol

 

The might be a small plastic box on the drivers or passengers strut tower in the engine compartment. If so open the box, find the FP and B+ terminals and connect them with wire.

This will bypass any fuel pump relays and allow it operate when the ign key is turned on.

 

Sweet so this will let me know if the relay iS bad or the fuel pump? Thanks for the help BTW. - Jon

 

It will bypass any relays etc to run the pump directly from the ign switch.
