I have been troubleshooting this toyota reach truck now for about three days now, working on it whenever i can. It started with a motor brushes low indicator and a code 58. after changing the steer stop proximity sensors and checking the motor brushes, having the motor rebuilt, i ended up with a code 61. I changed out the steer motor, checked the tack(working properly), sent out the steer controller, even had them send me a new steer controller, no luck. Another tech has spoken to a toyota tech with no luck of fixing it. He said that there is a communication problem between the steer components and the controller "no ***!" Any help would be much appreciated i am about to just light the SOB on fire!

Hello toyzila. I am having the same recurrent problem also. Changed the controller and the truck worked for 2 weeks only. Now same code 61 and LED #4 on the controller is on again. Onlye LED #4 is on. What else besides you have suggested should be done? How can I check if Controller is bad and if so, any suggestions on what may be cuasing the Controllers to go bad?
Sorry for all the questions, but this is a tough one for us.
Regards,

61 is usually caused by cycling the key switch too rapidly. the steer controller requires 2 seconds of off time for each cycle.
the K1 relay can also be responsible for this error. is 61 the only code? do you have (or need) literature.
