    Late Tacoma Knowledge Base Consolidation (New Users Start Here)

    Taken from TTORA
    So I went through all of the posts in the Late Gen Folder and tried to compile this list of the most asked questions/issues and popular topics. Let me know what you think and if the MODs like this they are welcome to sticky it. If I missed anything or something is out of place please let me know and I will fix it. It is long but it should be easy to quickly skim.

    5. turn key back to on position
    6. Continue holding the odometer button
