| Description of the problem | I have problem with my toyota 2004 tundra, that the dealership and another repair garage can't seem to find the problem. When i drive the truck, doesn't matter how long , every once in a while when i stop and turn it off all the electronics goes dead. I can't start the truck because the battery is dead and then somewhere between 15 minute to overnight, ever thing comes back on. No jumping of the battery. Had battery checked, alternator check and other things wiring and every thing is working find. The dealership and other mechanic from another shop said they cannot find the problem unless it is acting up at the time they check it. Had to call and get a tow and by the time the tow truck got the vehicle to the repair shop, it started up. Kind of scared to drive it anywhere.
