I live in a senior community. I added a canopy with storage compartments, where I keep tools. Now that I’m retired I need something to do so I go around the community fixing things. This seems to keep me off the street and out of trouble, for the most part.

I hate to admit it but I’m not the most current on electrical issues (no pun intended ). I do okay on standard house circuits but when it comes to measuring resistance I need more experience. By checking outlets in different vehicles with my tester (120v house type tester) and getting the same...

This has been a good, educational experience for me. Thanks everyone.

Turns out you are absolutely correct . See my last post on this topic.

Okay, so here is the answer to my question: I just returned from the dealer. I used my tester to show them the open ground fault indicator. Neither the service rep or the master mechanic had seen this before. I suggested we plug the tester into another vehicle to see if the issue could be...

So it is sounding more like there shouldn’t be an open ground fault. Would still be interesting to hear what results someone has if they plug a tester into the outlet.

I put a circuit tester on it (like you do for a house outlet and it registers “open ground fault”. I wish I had another Tacoma to test it on for a comparison, but unfortunately I don’t. I would be interested in hearing from anyone who can do this for me for? I take it in to the dealer on...

Thanks. I feel a little better about the voltage. I will focus on the open ground fault. I have an appointment for this Wednesday at the dealership.

Thanks. I’m learning something here.

That’s interesting about the fluctuation of voltage (110-125v). It says 120v on the switch so I assumed it would be 120v. I will go to the dealer and not say anything about the voltage and see what they come back with. But the open ground fault is definitely something that needs to be...

That’s what I’m thinking too. I will make the call today. I was just wondering if someone else had a similar issue.

I have a 2022 Tacoma off road w/only about 2,500 miles on it. The outlet in the bed shows an open ground and only puts out 111-112 bolts. Truck is on and button on dash is pushed. Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks
