I don't know what happened. I tried to turn on the car and it won't go on. I tried to jump start the car and it wouldn't start. What could possibly be the problem? Please give me your expert advices. Thank you in advance.

P.S. I have a 2000 es300 w/ 142K on it. Hopefully someone can help me...

 

Check the throttle body it might be dirty. I had the same issue. A dirty Throttle can cause alot of issues body throttle body cleaner is about $6.00.

 

You need to provide more detail. Does the car crank? (does the engine turn over)? If it does, does it sound like it is turning over at a normal speed? If it does not crank, does the starter soliniod make a load clicking noise? Turn the headlights on, and try to crank the car while someone watches the lights, do they dim? Does it apprear to have any power?

 

Probably the starter.. Get a BFH. LOL

 

Go to Autozone or other similar establishment. (You'll need to catch a ride or borrow a car). Pick up ANY Haynes manual and find the 'Troubleshooting' section. That's where ya start.

 

Thanks for the help all. I was told that the problem was that the battery drained out of nowhere. The battery is perfectly fine yet somehow it just drained out. So yea... no clue.
