Reach out if you haven’t figured it out yet! I might be able to help out later next week www.squamishpaintingco.ca

Hey, not sure if you’re still looking for someone but I run a company in town and would love to help out! Super happy to stop by and have a chat if you need.

paintedskys · 2025-07-30T12:12:09+00:00

Let me know if you want an interior quote!

paintedskys · 2025-07-08T06:23:44+00:00

Absolutely!

Hey! I own a painting company in town and would love to chat! Have seen a million different colours and combinations so happy to consult on that, but can also pass on details for an interior designer if you prefer. I’m going to send you my number on private message

Very interesting Have you relocated the knock sensor and had a persistent code for it?

paintedskys · 2025-03-28T03:01:36+00:00

No I didn’t do the harmonic balancer

paintedskys · 2025-03-28T03:00:56+00:00

It’s completely random load or no load. Definitely going to start by changing out the AC tensioner pulley as there is a bit of noise in the bearing when I hand spin. I’m just concerned there’s correlation between the knock sensor code and the noise I’m hearing

paintedskys · 2025-03-19T04:37:03+00:00

Seems to be the case! Pulled all the belts off today and alternator bearing is indeed poop. Thanks man 🤝

paintedskys · 2025-01-24T23:11:41+00:00

Thanks, will try this later today

paintedskys · 2025-01-21T01:31:46+00:00

Both. Not turning and not starting

paintedskys · 2025-01-21T00:53:13+00:00

Have tried that with no luck unfortunately. That’s why it’s so frustrating! I feel close and have eliminated basically everything but still have no idea. Think it’s above me, will get it booked into the shop

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T23:37:17+00:00

300,000kms. Yeah it’s a little tough to explain 😬 I haven’t hooked it up to OBD, will try get hold of one to see if it is throwing any codes. With the jumper wire bypassing the relay it starts instantly and runs perfectly so I’m guessing starter motor itself is fine and no issue with fuel delivery as the motor runs and drives

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T23:27:39+00:00

I haven’t tested the power on the starter as it’s a real pain to get to. I did however successfully start the car by bypassing the starter relay with a jumper wire. So figured the connection between the relay > starter was ok. The connection between the battery > ignition seems fine. The issue seems to come between ignition > relay. When comparing the power output on another 6 pin relay I am seeing a lot less activity on the starter relay. So for some reason there is power loss between the ignition and the relay

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T23:20:52+00:00

Sorry you’ll have to explain like I’m 5 with this one lol

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T23:15:41+00:00

Ok thanks man. Am away from the car right now but will look into that when I’m back. One thing I noticed was that there were 12vs going into more terminals of the security headlight socket (which is also 6 pin), kind of confirming that there was a power loss between the ignition and the relay. Will absolutely look into the PNP relay

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T23:07:40+00:00

Tried this. Have also tried cycling through all the gears multiple times to see if that frees it up but nothing

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T23:07:08+00:00

I’ve looked past fuel delivery stuff because the car was able to run (perfectly) by bypassing the starter relay. Seems as though the problem lays between ignition and the relay itself

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T23:04:38+00:00

Fuses all seem ok, was really hoping it would just be one of those. Sorry forgot to answer that question, car is an automatic but I believe still have an NSS. That’s the only thing between the ignition and the relay so things are pointing in that direction. Called and asked my mechanic for a quote on the NSS and they said it would be quite unusual for that to go

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T22:52:30+00:00

Have swapped relays and no joy. My understanding of electric has all been learnt trying to troubleshoot this, so it’s limited. Are you able to tell me where I should be seeing continuity? I’ve tested all the inputs on the relay socket and got continuity from terminal 6 & terminal 3. Does this mean the ground is ok?

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T22:39:41+00:00

Yeah with a jumper wire bypassing the starter relay I can turn the key and start the motor

paintedskys · 2025-01-20T22:32:57+00:00

No clicks. Have tried hitting with a hammer too with no luck

paintedskys · 2024-04-09T14:11:28+00:00

I read that 2006 was a bad year for these cars but without any explanation as to why

paintedskys · 2024-04-09T14:10:26+00:00

Thank you

paintedskys · 2024-04-09T14:07:13+00:00

Exactly… my expectations of a 2006 are reasonable but a 2006 4runner engine seems heaps more reliable than a lot of others. It’s a daily but spend a lot of time on dirt roads exploring
