Asked by Mike
I have recently had a problem with my 2002 Toyota LandCruiser Prado. After having stopped at a set of lights, as I was proceeding to go, the engine symbol came on and the VCS turned off, and my Prado went into limp mode. I got to a safe spot, turned the engine off and waited a few seconds, turned it on again and the system seemed fine. However, this was repeated again a little while later at some roadworks, again after having to stop. Any clues as to what the problem may be so I can get the problem sorted before going on a trip up to Broome?

9 Jun 2017Each time you switch the engine off and then on again you are rebooting the computer. Sometimes that resets things and you can drive on with no further problem, but because it is doing it again and again there must be an underlying problem. I suggest you take it to a mechanic with the diagnostic gear to identify the problem and fix it.
