ok tonight car broke down...

coming off the freeway today my car died
it was raining just for the note
started slowing down and put my window down
once the window got down my whole car died
tryed starting but it wouldnt
only light on the dash was the battery

heres a list of things that i have noticed are working

headlights
brake lights
park lights
hazards lights
interior lights
electric seats


list of things not working

engine
starter
fuel pump
microtech
stereo
power windows
indicators
digital clock

thats all i can think of at the moment

I know you've said the starter isn't working, but will the car crank over at all or does it just click or what ?

My 1J Cressida had a similar emotional experience.

Ended up being a relay shorted out and effective the rest of things. No idea if this is of relevance.

Prob wouldn't be far from it, one of my cars shat the Electric window relay once killing the car, was fucking stupid the way it was all wired into together. However, it was a HX Deville, not a Supra

one of the ingnition switch power sources from the fusebox short circuited

so they made a power source through an external fusebox and fixed it
so thats my story
$240 to fix
