Land Cruiser Prado won't start!! possible fix before spending $$$ | KZJ95 1KZ-TE prado 90

[@Mohtar18]

Dude, thanks my friend you helped me solve my starting issue!! I replaced the relay and it's working perfectly

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

No worries man, glad to help out. 👍

[@thewongshow6582]

Hey man great video my Prado intermittently stalls, will start right back up but before it shuts off I hear a click under the glovebox. I’ve searched down there but didn’t see your relay. But I’m thinking my Prado is doing similar. Good time thanks

[@BenKilleeneqqqqwtFghmiiaj]

I'm an auto sparky . Have had that similar issue before but needed a second hand pump to fix problem. Sensors in output failing and confusing ecu. Great work kn your diagnosis and laughs with the old man 👴 👍👍

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

Thanks, yeah its nice to have a similar prado in my case. I have swapped ecu, switches and stuff to rule out things. Yeah things like this I spend time with my old man is gold😁

[@jocoulter1912]

Currently doing the same thing but can get the car started but stopping while driving down the highway. No codes coming up and only get engine light the second the engine stops. Wait 20 mins and she starts up again. The consideration after replacing almost all relays, fuses, ignition module, crank position sensor and oxygen sensor is the fuel pump where it is heating up..the ECU doesn't like it so turns off the motor. This week will see a car I can drive from A to B without stopping along the way.

Hi Ralph, nice work mate! I was having the same trouble with my Prado 2002 KZTE Turbo Diesel engine. I did the same things as you and I still having problem to start my engine.It take about 5 to 10 seconds to start, when is cranking and blowing grey smoke just at the beginning. I was following several manuals and also looking for help on You Tube. But I could not find where is that bloody relay! Thanks for your help and I wishing you a lot of happy adventures with your Prado.

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

Thanks mate!, glad it helped you out, when It solved my case, thought of sharing it to help someone.

Amazing video congrats

I own a toyota prado land cruiser 1999 , and I have a problem with the car. If I turn on the 2nd start bulb, the car will turn on, and if it does not work, 2nd start. The car will not start at all, and I noticed that the diesel does not reach the engine and does not come out of the pump, although it is working fine. I have 4 months and could not start the car because of this problem and I did not find it.

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

Heya, sorry I haven't checked this video for awhile, how's your prado? Any update?

[@willflyforleisure7241]

I have starting issues, the sulf take too long to start this engine, i replaced new injectors, new turbo, heaters but all in vain, it also emit smoke when engine start up.

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

Hey man, things to check also is your egr valve/diaphragm.(like a spaceship above the egr) If this is stuck open/closed. The engine wont start at all or can start with lots of smoke then wont idle much. Try to have someone turn the key to On position then off. You should see move freely. Hope that helps mate

head gasket

[@johnsonwerner4360]

Working on one replaced the relay still giving me a head ache

[@mick3422]

What size tyres on that and what lift

[@MegaMr28]

so the problem was that it wouldnt start at all or it would start and then cut out.?

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

Just cranking, doesn't want to start at all.

[@gregoranderson912]

How do you remove the air vent??

[@HuhJokerNoob]

Hello, may I ask where did u purchased the relay? I am having the same issue.

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

Heya, if you're in NZ, I have purchased it from Pans Pacific cheers

[@moreno4x4]

Hello Ralph , please the number on the relay , thanks

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

Hi sorry its been awhile, couldn't remember, will let you know if I find my old one cheers

[@jelleveirman]

I have the exact same issue with a LHD but no matter where I look, I can't find this relay!!! According to the manual should be "passenger R/B", but I've been looking everywhere under the dash, left and right but I can't find it.... . And I know the cause of the problem is either the relay or the ecu itself because the SPV doesn't get activated. Engine starts when I activate the valve myself...

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

Heya yeah I checked my manual for Lhd aswell. And its showing side of glove box. By chance you haven't removed the airduct to access on the side?. Also had a quick search online there is a relay for fuel pump LHD driver's side airvent near the door. Hope you find you're one!

[@Farmer2492]

help needed please i have a 2004 Toyota prado 120 series diesel with manual gearbox i went to start it today when i turn the key its dead silent nothing all dash instrument lights light up but no dash lights also electric windows dont work when we push the car it starts first go could it be starter motor what do i check please

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

Hi, lots of possibilities, but I'd check fuses make sure they are not blown, starter relay as well. You can check voltage to starter aswell see if its getting voltage/and signal. Cheers

[@Farmer2492]

there should be 12 volts going to starter so one battery wire goes to starter and should be a thin wire that goes to ignition and when i turn ignition on to start there should be power at the thin ignition wire does that sound right

[@Sit8369]

Did u replace it or just remove it and car started?

[@rsadventuresnz8400]

I had it replaced as its faulty. Not too bad for clicking more than 20 years lol

[@nitrovo]

@@rsadventuresnz8400 your happiness made me smile, it's a great feeling haha. How did you go about testing to find this was faulty? use a multimeter? cheers

[@omariormotsadze1124]
