WEIRD ISSUE WITH YARIS ! many problems at 1 time !
2008 yaris ,automatic.,60,000
All this came on very fast ! car was running great then started odd sluggish shifting and then downhill fast on multi problems ! very odd ! Threw a po335 code so changed the crank sensor ,no change in problem & code returned. Problems... brake applied car dies, put in gear car dies,dash lights blink too- sometimes, power steering assist is cutting off & on too, very odd shifting issues,clunkling etc. any clue ? |

ok to add to the weirdness ! I was thinking short of some type due to the dash lights turning off when brake applied & dash going totally out when heater turned up and killing car sometimes.
So I started lookinh over wires etc and removeing anything I had installed ,well that led to the ultraguage so I unplugged it & it killed car right away ??? then it gets really weird a few lights on dash stay on like oil light when cars off & keys out of ignition ??? Then the heater fan starts runnning ?? so I think well one more reset by removeing negative batt cable wont hurt. So i un hook cable and when re hooking it up a larger than normal spark happens ( i know this happens sometimes & normally thier is a tiny spark on resttachment) well i go back restart car and it semms fine WTF ? RE PLUG IN ultra guage and it all working again ?? I dont get it ? |

The large spark on reconnecting the battery indicates that something is drawing significant current. The dash lights staying on with the ignition off sounds like a relay's contacts are staying closed when they should not be.
Do you per chance have an aftermarket keyless entry, remote starter, or alarm?

Your a god ! The st relay was causing the starter issue & maybe more. Should I replace relay ? Pal says once their bad it can happen again ? Also do you think that the st being stuck could have caused so much electrical chaos ? Car seems to be fine now , I think the crank sensor caused the initial issues with shifting and some how in all this the st relay got stuck & really caused problems . Thanks for all the help ,it was truly a correct direction !!
