Car starts but shuts off as soon as you release the ignition switch.

This sounds like the circuit open relay is not working here is the location so you can check it out. Check out the images below. Please let us know what happens.

Not sure if that is right. The engine shuts off as soon as you take pressure of the keys. Even if you have your foot on the gas? It went from yesterday having no problems starting to this?

I will check but how?

We are experiencing this same problem on a 1999 Camry. We have checked EFI relay (good), fuel pressure (good) and now at a loss. So I change the relay as motioned and it fixed it thank you.
