E09-1 error

Another **** Toyota has this error and will not start at all. Driver was backing out of trailer and machine just shut off. It will crank but not start. I believe it has something to do with ignition but not quite sure. These Toyotas are getting to be a pain. At least it will be under warranty as 8 of 9 Toyotas have under 9000 hours and 3 are under 300 only. One of the new ones has this error code and i hate to call the dealer because they have poor service.Anyone know what this is? It's an 8FGCU25 Toyota with about 300 hours on it.

Cheers, this was super helpful. I would never had thought to check the grounding of the igniter.

Had one that was showing E 09-1 on a 8FGU25. Traced wiring, found all good. No spark to plugs. Found a loose mounting bolt on the igniter (just below the battery). Fired right off. Must need a good ground to fire.

What did the dealer say was wrong with the first truck? You may a harness issue. Some of those trucks had the harness rubbing by the fuse box and wires were grounding out causing erratic codes.

I have another one this morning with this error but it runs. The engine light is on and wrench is flashing. Driver on third shift says it shut off a few times. Looks like the dealer will be back yet again.

check the 2 wires at the distributor. One is power and the other is a signal wire. I bet one is broken.
