Hi all, I have a Hilux 2.5 diesel model pick up, I recently rolled it landed on the wheels, but now after panel beating, it does not start, noting works, when the key is in the on position all you hear is a fast paced clicking noise from behind the dashboard at the driver side. Not showing anything on the dash like I said nothing seams to be working. I know the speedometer works with some kind of chip, could that be a issue?

Hello,

Glad you are okay after the roll. It sound like the battery is having a problem.

Here is a guide so you can load test it to confirm
