Q: I think I have every warning light on right now

asked by on November 06, 2015

Now because I live way out in the country, I buy trucks like my 2008 Toyota Tundra that are said to last longer and run reliably in less-than-ideal weather conditions. This truck was fine up until about 44,000 miles, when every light on the dash took turns lighting up! I am at 58,500 miles now and I am at a loss, I have driven it into town to the dealer 6 times now and I need a solution. What can I do about this? The check engine, 4wd, abs, etc. lights come on randomly.

Changed camshaft sensor but car still won't start, could it be the crankshaft sensor?
Hello, thanks for writing in. Most of the time, this code comes up when there is a difference between the crank and cam sensors.
