Engine won't stop running

I have a 1999 Toyota Corolla and i started up the car fine. But when i backed it out of the garage and turned off the ignition, the engine wouldn't stop running even with the key out. I had to disconnect the battery to stop the engine. Any idea why this is the case?

First of all;

1- If your engine fuel “gas" accelerator linkages not binding or wedges between
other parts of frame or engine!!!
Look for the above problem first, then if it's OK.

2- Your car engine timing could be ON ****** NOT on advance....
Timing should be always on advance (which is the correct
situations" """ Timing in advance start from "0”, "4" "6" ,"8",
"10", "12"
IN ****** start from "0”, "4”, etc.

If you have improper TIMING (especially in ******) you'll have
mostly very high temperature most of the time, which will
eventually damage your engine AND it's (the temperature)
is a KILLER for your Automatic
(If your transmission is) transmission.

I hope I helped you.

RAM,
Earth.

It's probably is the Engine dis-abler, I'm having the same problem but the other way around. I replaced the ECU but now the key/Ignition switch isn't synced with the new brain.

SOURCE: 1999 Toyota Corolla Seca - hatchback. the tail

If you put your foot on the brake, the tail lights and parking lights will still come on. Possibly your brake is sticking. Check to see if it is and if it is put WD40 for a quick fix. See a tech for them to fix your brake alignment. Good Luck!

In my Toyota Corolla 1999, I hear a noise in the engine, when we start the machine. Often it works properly, but sometimes doesn't work well. The mechanic said that maybe the fry wheel is broken. He...

The flywheel and clutch are used to disconnect the engine from the gearbox to help change gear more easily. It is also where the starter motor connects when you start the engine.
If one or the other is worn or damaged you will find it harder to start the car, change gear and work the clutch.
$500 is about where the price will be at most garages.

1999 toyota corolla. Car would not shut off went

I assume the car is a petrol! to stop a petrol engine the ignition needs to be shut down! if there is over run happening there are a few reasons for this. There is a problem with ignition mudule! spark plugs coked up! or the cylinders are coked.
If the car is a Diesel model then the reason for this happening is the shut off valve on the fuel pump is at fault.

Hope this helps.
