Why does the Toyota Camry turn off while driving?
Years 1997-2001

Answer

The most common reason a car like the Toyota Camry dies while driving is a faulty crankshaft position sensor, or problems with the fuel system. For example, if the fuel filter is clogged, there will be insufficient fuel entering the system and the engine will shut down. The fuel filter is inside the tank, so kicking the tank when the car has stopped can give us an indication. If the car restarts we have found the fault and replacing a fuel filter is not a problem. The problem can also arise from a faulty alternator, which will cut off power to the car's vital elements. The lights on the dashboard go out and the engine will lose power abruptly. A faulty ignition switch can cause the car to shut off while driving, it is a switch where dirt and rust can accumulate, and in this way can help the engine stop. Or problems with the car's engine sensors, such as the oxygen sensor, which can mess with the air / gas mixture, so much that the engine dies. Last but not least; the empty tank.
