1986 FSM says same.

Heatt69,
That wire runs to a brass plate on the fuse box. Plate connects to 80A fuse which is the grey cube right above the its screw:



Guys with 86Runenrs,
Would you please post pics of wire on your 4Runners? Mine looks like below. I suspect it had been modified because it has a thin (12AWG) blue wire instead of thick white one.

 

i hav taken the 80amp fuess out but thay look all good exept for the power in wireso i am going to get new ones asap i will let you know if it works .. thanks

tony menzies You must have a diesel (like this?), not common in the U.S. However...
Starter does not work means but tow starts and dash lights on when engine on means battery power is not getting to your starter system, but your alternator supplies power after tow starting.
In order to shut off a diesel engine, one needs to shut off air, not electricity.
That you could not shut off engine probably means your air shut-off solenoid and/or mechanism is not working. Check that solenoid making a sound. If it does work, it should actuate something that shuts off air. If you're getting sparks when solenoid energizes, it could be that solenoid's drawing to much current (something else is wrong with it- coil shorting to ground maybe? plunger stucc?)

Suggest you check wiring that is common to starting system and air shut-off solenoid.

 

Would like to know what the am1 fusible link is for so I can find my short!

 

Hi yall,

My name is Avondale but you can call me Von... I just bought a 1987 toyota but I do not know what fuses go where and I am getting tired of trying to find information on the internet. Surprisingly GOOGLE doesn't know it all... If anyone can help me out I would appreciate it. I just do not know what size to put where... I have a panel at the drivers kick plate and one under the hood, if there are any others please let me know. This is my first time ever asking a forum for help... Thanks guys!!!

Von

Search Oil Pan removal in the search window. Or something similar. Or, if necessary, start your own thread.

I would help, but I don't know what we are working on...

I bridge it and the lights on the inside will come on but still want start can anyone help I have to work tomorrow and need this fixed. I really messed the 80 amp fuse up trying to get the broken fuse out.
