Hi. I need your help. I sent to Toyota and after intensive checking they could not find the problem.
---------------------------
Problem 1: It only happened 4 times this year and a couple times last year
My innova suddenly cannot start while I was using it, not in the morning. The engine crank as usual but cannot start.
I noticed that the engine orange lamp is off. I waited for few minutes, I put the key on and the light is on and the engine start as usual.
Problem 2: Happened twice. Once this year and once 4 years ago.
The engine went off while driving. Then after a few attempts to start, it started as usual.
------------------------
I think both problem related. I think is is related to the orange engine light.
Please help. Now I afraid to drive long distance.
Thanks

harriman.
I had the same problem as yours on my unser.
After alot of trial and errors, changed plugs, plug cable, new starter, distributor head, only to find out that it was a wire that connecting the starter and the keyhole from the steering was a little loose. So whenever the wire is loose ie disconnecting, the engine died off as well, even when you are driving.
Try re-route another wire instead. Mine so far so good after 2 weeks since re-routed.

Nevermind a signature, just me !!

This happened to my innova too when it was new, very hard to detect the problem. Finally got rectified by cleaning the contact of the fuses and the immobiliser.
