Im beyond grateful for this video. I have the same truck with the same problem. Happened after trying to plug in new taillights. I was near tears thinking the rat problem im experiencing got ahold of my harness. Thank you so much! You solved my problem and saved me lots of money. SUBSCRIBED
Thanks for subscribing Robert, I appreciate it. I’m glad this video helped, thanks for tuning in!
Did it burn again after? Mines happened the next day again and I also have aftermarket taillights
@@DonJulio510 No. The first time was my fault. I had a couple of wires crossed. I would recommend double checking your wiring. Good luck.
@@DonJulio510 no. I think it was depressing the gas pedal and brake at the same time for me. It happened when I was unloading my gear and I threw my tool bag with my 1/2” impact gun in it and hit the 2 pedals at the same time.
I just want to say I LOVE YOU!!!! This just happened to me, and I’m glad I had extra fuses and don’t have to bring it to the stealership, this after to me 2 days after replacing the speakers, which I can’t fathom why it would affect the breaks
Stealership? LOL, I love it, that pretty much sums it up!! Hey man, I'm very happy that this video helped. One of my subscribers mentioned that this happened to him when he was replacing his tail lights... hmmm... Anyway, hope to see you on my channel again so be sure to subsribe and thanks for tuning in! Cheers!
THANK YOU!!!! Other internet sources told me to take it to the dealership. I was contemplating a tow truck and huge repair bill. You saved me.
You're very welcome, I'm glad it worked for you. Just wondering, what caused this to happen to your truck?
Thanks for sharing. Went out to my truck tonight to go pick up some pizza and had this error. Watched your video and went right to the problem like I knew what I was doing.
Nice, I'm glad the video helped. Don't forget to stock up on mini-fuses! Thanks for tuning in Craig, hope to see you on my channel again. Cheers!
Thank you so very much for the fix on my 19 Tacoma! Worked like a charm. I was on the end of my rural mail route when the gear shift locked up when I turned off the truck. You’re a lifesaver!!! TY! TY!
You are very welcome Keith! Thanks for tuning in!
THANK YOU! Replacing the fuse worked! We are currently snowed/iced in so you helped tremendously. Beyond grateful in Alabama!
Wow, snowed-in in Alabama? I would expect that up here in Canada but never heard of Alabama getting snowed in. Anyway, I’m glad the video helped. Thanks for tuning in and safe travels!
This video saved me. My fuse blew when I was trying wire in a third bake light on a truck camper.
I’m glad it helped, thank you for tuning into my channel Greg! Stay safe.
What a life saver . Tried this on a similar year Toyota Hilux and it worked… much appreciated from 🇿🇼
I'm glad this video helped you tawongasimonchengeta! Cheers my friend and thanks for tuning in!
On a Sunday during a long holiday weekend at a campsite … not too shabby of a place to get stranded 😊 … especially with that good, comfy looking trailer setup. Thanks for sharing. You’ll never know this video will come in handy.
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you making this video! I am almost 66 years old and a woman and had the same code come up. It is kind of unhinging. Because of your video, I was able to fix my own truck by myself and not have to go to the mechanic. Thank you so very much!
You're very welcome Helen! Good on you for getting your hands dirty and fixing it on your own! I'm glad this video was helpful. Thanks for tuning in and be safe out there!
Thanks brother! Solved the issue on my GX460 aka Prado as well. I was stranded 2 hrs from a dealer
I'm glad it worked out for you. 2 hours from the dealer would've been a very expensive tow! cheers brother!
THANK YOU so much for this info! My wife JUST had this issue on her 2019 Sequoia. The STOP fuse was blown. I replaced it and problem solved. You likely saved us a few hundred dollars or more!
You are very welcome margento. Thank you for tuning into my channel!
Glad all is well and you were able to troubleshoot the problem hope you and your wife enjoyed your wilderness time...be safe!
Hey Billy-jade, yeah, I was lucky it worked out. Enjoy the summer and stay safe as well bro!
Thank you so much for this information. I was having the same issue with my 2021 Tacoma and did exactly what you described and it worked! It saved me a lot of time and money from going to the dealership. Thanks again!
I’m glad the video helped =). Please consider subscribing and check out my other videos for more Tacoma content. Cheers and thanks for tuning in yenner!
Thank you for sharing. That light has came on for me while going down the road twice now. It slows me down so I can't go over about 50-55mph. First time I was an hour from home. Disconnected the battery for a while, reconnected and was fine for several months. Second time was a few days ago. I made it home driving really slow, started up the next day just fine with no break override malfunction, but now I have a check engine light on.
Sounds like a serious issue. What is Toyota saying about this?
I haven't had a chance to take it in. (Luckily, I have a corolla for a work commuter) I checked my fuses, and they are good. I have a pedal commander installed that I literally just took off about 5 minutes ago. Removing the pedal commander took off the check engine light. I'm going to run it without and see if that was the issue. Hopefully, the light stays off, and the break override doesn't come back
Thanks I had an identical problem. Your video was the best out there on the topic. My only concern is if it will happen again. I guess I better get a few 10 amp spares>
Thanks for tuning in John. Yep, I stocked up on my fuse spares!
You are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing this. I had the exact same problem and had no idea what to do.
Interestingly enough, my Taco is a manual transmission and I could go into gear just fine, but couldn't go over 25 mph.
@@jaimieaddy1790 real interesting. I’m glad this helped, thanks for tuning in jaimieaddy!
Do NOT use those cheap LED circuit resistors, things melted the tail light harnesses. Had the brake override come up, day was already screwed up, messed up more. This video help me a bunch, thank you! Removed those stupid led resistors!! (They heat up a lot)
This is great information Himmet. Some have commented here that this happened to them when installing taillights. I guess those have LED resistors. Makes sense. Thanks for sharing, this is very useful info to me and my followers… cheers and thanks for tuning in!
I had the same problem and you saved me so much time and money. Thank you so much!!!
I’m glad I could help, thanks for tuning in Daniel!
I am truly grateful to you for this helpful video. My newly bought truck had the same problem and your video saved me. ❤ Thanks a million
You are very welcome kalpeshdudhela! I appreciate you for tuning into my channel. Stay safe!
Seriously, you are awesome! Thanks for the video. You saved my night.
You are very welcome! Thanks for tuning in!
Thanks so much for this video, had the same problem with a hilux while towing a trailer. Worked perfectly. Cheers
You’re very welcome twitch. You have a Hilux? Where are you located?
Thank you for this video❤❤i've experience this on my innova.now i try to check..thank you❤
You are very welcome Angelo. Thanks for tuning into my channel. Stay safe!
Thanks brother! Mine worked i took it out. Drove it for a while. Then it turned off. Has been off ever since. Its been a little over a month now.
Awesome! Thanks for tuning my friend… stay safe!
Omg took me half a day to come to this video and it saves my life.
Thank you for the video. How much do I owe you now ?
Cause the dealer would’ve charged me an arm and a leg for this.
LOL... yep, the "stealership" would've definitely gouged you plus the cost of towing but you don't owe me anything. I would appreciate it if you subscribed to my channel though! =) I'm glad you found my video and that it helped. Stay safe my friend!
Thanks for the share Mod Xela! I hope it doesn't happen to me but great to know just in case!
Thanks for stopping by JoKalpits!
you're a life saver, just did the same thing when I installed new taillights lol

I’m glad it was useful, thanks for tuning in kingcole!
Thank you very much (maraming salamat) for sharing.
You're very welcome BumBee22. Walang anuman.
@@modXELA This spot would be a good "KILL FUSE SWITCH" location.
@@BumBee22 lol, you got it my friend. I was thinking the same thing. That will be my next video!
@@modXELA With the 10-amp fuse, it will require at least an 18AWG wire. I looked what is available: a wire harness with an in-line fuse comes with a 16AWG wire and so are the other parts to use with this build.
@@BumBee22 thanks for the info, good head start!
Who else wiped your screen at about 1 min in? Clean that dash screen bro...lol Thank you for that info, good to know just in case.
I was camping and it was really dusty. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! LOL... I know bro, pardon the mess. Thanks for tuning in gregtomlin!

Perfect u just save my day
I'm glad it helped klab!
I have a 2023 Tacoma SR 4x4 with less than 2k miles on it. Had the Brake Override Malfunction Error, the truck barely moved in driveway. Had it towed to Toyota dealer. After 2 days they claimed they fixed it after replacing a fuse, went to pick it up and as I waited for service guy to pull truck up to me the error activated again as he started it up. Left truck for another 5 days. Dealer claimed they had someone from corporate Toyota show up to help them because they could not figure out the issue. They ended up replacing the throttle body. So far so good. I will say prior to me getting the brake override malfunction error, the truck was idling a little high and the RPM's would pulse up and down a little high while in park...then into drive at idle speed. Also, recently prior to getting the brake override malfunction error I had happen one time where I was driving at slow speed maybe around 30-40mph and when I went to to give some throttle to speed up for a split second there was no response in throttle at all then it kicked in, was a very short of no response to stepping on the throttle. I was going to take the truck into the dealer for those issues but shortly after I got the brake override malfunction error. At the end of the day I now believe the problem was the throttle body due to the events that led to getting the final death blow error. I hope this can help someone who perhaps checked all the other things that could possibly give the brake override malfunction error.
Wow, so far it sounds like this error can be triggered by various things. Looks like there’s some wiring shortage somewhere. I’m glad they were able to figure yours out and I hope the solution is permanent. Thanks for sharing your experience staticckay, I’m sure this will be very helpful to my followers. Thanks for tuning in!
@@modXELA You’re welcome, thank you for your vid.
You saved the day, thanks mate. 👍🏻
You're very welcome my friend. Cheers!
@@modXELA 👍🏼
Thanks! You saved my butt!
Hey hawkman, I’m glad you found my channel! Thanks for tuning in. Safe travels!
If its not the fuse you can also reset it by restarting your truck 6-10 times.
thanks for the share!
Awesome information for thx.
Thanks for tuning in kenadrews!
It worked! Thank you
Hi Josh, I’m glad it worked out for you. Thanks for tuning into my channel.
Awesome video.
Thanks for tuning in msarte!
This happens twice to me with a 2017 stick shift Tacoma
After a couple of day I was able to drive it
All wheels were locked
Any comments on what to do
Since mine is a stick shit not sure if that is the same fix as an automatic
Interesting. Do you know what's triggering it to blow?
Thank you !
@@djkatazyou’re welcome. thanks for tuning in.
Thank u
Thanks for tuning in.
Good info. Thanks!
Thanks for tuning in Fergie!
Mine start showing evey sing after when I oil change and it's 2018 toyota camry what should I do? I went back to dealer they said it's not our problem
@bloodzapper5842 This sounds like you have to push your dealer to deal with it. It sounds like it is their problem. I can't see how a mechanical activity such as changing oil results to an electrical issue that pertains to a braking error. Did you do any installs/upgrades to your Camry
that might be associate to this?
FYI this also works on 5th gen 4runner! I just did it on mine!
Hey that's good to know DonJulio, thanks for sharing!
@@modXELAdid you ever figure out what cause that fused to burn? Mines burn the next day again and I assume its my aftermarket LED tallights.
I hve the problem with my Brake Hold Malfunction. I guess it happenes after i installed the not quality brake pads. Too much brake dusts. I haven't change it at tge dealer
God bless you
Thank you and I'm glad you found my channel. Stay safe!
Thank you
You are very welcome Diggingthisvibe! Thanks for tuning in.
Thanks that was usefull
Thanks for tuning in SEASEVEN!
I might have missed it but how did you figure that it was a fuse? Also, I wonder what caused it to blow?
Hey Davidr... it's either electrical or mechanical. Considering where I was and no clue on why and how, checking fuses was my best easy bet and it paid out. From a few quick reads, apparently this usually happens when you step on both the brake and gas pedals simultaneously but it can only happen when the vehicle is in motion. When we got to the campsite on the prior day, I tossed a heavy tool bag into that area so it may have hit the 2 pedals but it still doesn't make sense as the truck was not on. At any rate, thanks for tuning in!
@@modXELA Thanks for the great info and great videos!
BTW, I had watched your video a bunch of times when you installed your from bumper inorder to install mine.
Are you going to install he wings on the bumpber that they have now?
@@davidr.1517 hmmm... what wings on the bumper? Send me sample link!
@Tacoma Mod XELA the wings for the body armor don't look good in my opinion...but might look good to you..
@@franz7671 Actually, I don't mind the look at all. More importantly, it provides more clearance so I just might do it... you definitely gave me something to think about 🤔
Omg. Thank You
You're welcome and thanks for tuning into my channel!
Hola me paso lo mismo me
Funciono tu tutorías pero la palanca de velocidades sigue sin mover
I don't understand Spanish very well. Are you saying that your gears are still stuck?
Hola amigo una pregunta, como resolviste el problema de destrabar la palanca .tengo el mismo problema en mi corolla 2020.gracias
nice fix.
Thanks farookismail!
I saw one of your videos from black lake loop. Wondering if water got into the cab after crossing that deep water?
@@modXELA No sir no water got into my truck but the landcruiser got stuck there a while and water did get into the back trunk area but not much just enough to dampen the carpet.
@@farookismail6470 thanks, that’s good to know… I can confidently cross that level of water now… IF I come across some!
Im having this issue and followed the instructions step by step and still it’s not starting.. what now?
what did you do before this happened?
@@modXELA I tried to start it. It did not start. My jump start takes 10 hours to fully charge. I saw your video and I was hoping the fuse would do the trick.
My battery died and the fuse was fine. I replaced the battery and I am up and running again.
I did the fuse thing and blew 2 more ten amps. But using a 15amp held.
Same model same year same problem. Sure enough fuse blown. replaced and same problem came back . Bottom line for me diid not fix did not work. New fuse I put in was not blown. Pushed down to reseat relays on every one still will not let me shift out of park and comes up with warning
Did you install anything prior to this?
@@modXELA Turned out they discovered the work box we took off shorted out something in the electric. Dealer fix and $300.00
@@ronaldpostoian1817 ouch!
Did you have the Pedal Commander on your truck?
No I don’t. I tried a few tunes before but its back to factory settings now. Would pedal commander possibly cause this short?
I just installed mine yesterday and got this error today. Strangely I can still drive it just disabled the radar and traction control
@@sabertooth_fl get rid of it and get the Overland Torque Tune. The pedal Commander is dangerous for your vehicle and it has been proven. The Overland Torque Tune is a real fix for throttle lag, shift points AND gear hunting. I got rid of my Pedal Commander and now I have the Overland Torque Tune. BEST thing I did to my Tacoma by far. Please….don’t listen to RobMotive. He gets paid by pedal Commander to straight up lie.
@@modXELA pedal Commander could definitely cause that
@@stay4theride thanks for this info. It sounds like it can be caused by various things. Not sure if this is a flaw or intentional by Toyota.
I am stuck with only some WiFi...can't watch video. Can someone please comment what I need to do? Waiting on tow truck out in the middle of nowhere.
Replace the fuse 15a
Under the hood, marked STP
@everyone what steps to take? I can't play the video
Change 15A fuse labeled as STP under the hood (assuming that it’s busted)
i changed the fuse but the same thing keeps happening
@@blazeadams2499 did you install something new?
@@modXELA no never
@@modXELAi wanna make sure i said it right i changed the fuse it works , but the fuse blows in no time again
@@blazeadams2499 sounds like it’s grounded. I would have your dealer or mechanic look into it.
Bring the Toyota Hilux diesel to America 😔
Yep... but I wonder if those can tow travel trailers?
@@modXELA 252 lbs of torque at 1400 RPM.. I'm sure no problem 👍
@@Randythesavage777 I would definitely consider it… will save $$$ on fuel for sure!
Even though this electrical failure was staged, rehearsed and orchestrated as actual, it might be helpful if someone feels compelled to be that duck with the broken wing.
