If jumper cables don’t start it then it might be the mass air flow sensor. I just got done fixing this issue with my 14 tC. I took out the back seat first & the fuel pump didn’t get any voltage checking with my multi meter. So I decided to go to Autozone for their loaner program, paid $250 (which they refunded in cash when returning) to borrow a code reader. Found P0113 & P0102 or “Mass Air Flow Circuit Low & intake air temperature circuit high input.” Autozone was going to charge $150 for the part, so I searched it on Amazon & paid $40. First I removed negative terminal on battery (to reset check engine light & make sure no shorts when plugging in the new one), installed new sensor then plugged it in. Then I checked to make sure gas cap was closed right & then re-installed negative terminal on battery. Turned the key & it started right up. Hope this helps cause it was a very disturbing & confusing repair that took me a week to figure out.
Hey buddy chasing the same problem on an 06. Fuel pump wasn't cutting on. Got new one. Then rumbling when hot and won't start. I've changed coils,crank and cam sensor and plugs . Still no change . Any ideas?
Have y’all figured out the problem, I’m having the same issue and can’t seem to find a solution
