    I have a 2002 Tundra 2wd v8 that started to loose engine power when I come to stops or slow down. The power stays on but the engine turns off and I loose brakes and power steering. I ruled out batteryand alternatorissues. At autozone the code P0715 came up which is input/turbine speed censor circuit malfunction. Any one have any insight about these symptoms and this code? Thanks

    Try cleaning your throttle body first. Use throttle body cleaner with a tooth brush and soft rag and report back. Plenty of DIY Youtubes videos.

    This definitely helped. It was pretty caked up. Cleaned it out and it started up and sounded much stronger. Drove around for a bit and no stalling out. Thanks for the insight. I’m hoping this was the culprit.
