  • Starter Motor or Alternator Issue

    Hi All.
    150 Diesel Prado, automatic, 230000kms. Had a few issues lately so trying to understand some of them.

    Twice in the last 2 weeks the starter motor has sounded like it stays on for a second after the car starts, kinda like when you turn the key after the car has started (obv my prado has the push button). Had the fault codes checked last week after it did it once but didn't have anything for startability etc.

    Also had Engine Light/4LO flashing/Slip Indicator light up on the dash a few times, but it didn't do it last time the above issue happened. I'm dealing with a separate issue with the torque converter at the moment so it could be that.

    Anyway, does the above issue sound like the starter motor or alternator packing it in? Is there anything I can do at home to test either? I've got a multi that I can test the basics on the alternator (check input charge on battery with car off/on).
    Any help would be great.

      Was thinking that, just going through a potential $2.5-5k torque converter and gearbox rebuild atm (wont know till its opened up next week), so cash is a bit strapped. Guess ill get it done after.
