Could be several reason as stated. But I would go after the engine coolant temperature sensor first. needs to go on a scanner to diagnose.

There could be several reasons why your engine will not start. When you first turn the key to the On position (without starting the engine), the lights on your dash should illuminate. The yellow Check Engine light should come on, at least for a few seconds. If not, then you are not getting power to your engine computer. Perhaps the fuse is loose. Locate the Engine fuse in the cabin fuse panel and wiggle it while watching the dash lights. When the Check Engine light illuminates, you should be able to start the engine. If not, then it is time to check for spark. You can remove a spark plug, install a jumper between the ground electrode and the engine block, insert the spark plug securely into the spark plug boot, and have an assistant crank the engine. If you see your spark plug firing, then you can assume you have a fuel delivery problem. Have the system pressure tested. You may have a weak fuel pump.

A/T oil temp light comes on accompanied with battery ligh. The engine wouldn't start. Toyota 2010 4Runner limited edition

which engine?
2.7 L 2TR-FE I4 (157 hp, 2WD, 2010 only)
4.0 L 1GR-FE V6 (270 hp)
that means the engine stalled, or was real close to stall
800 rpm is lowest on most modern cars.
so ..wow you like to guess, with $100 bills>?
wow.
NOOBS 101 (posted 100s of times)
  1. get in car, turn on head lights , do they work, (yes/no)
  2. yes, turn key, does all those silly warning lights glow (y/n)
  3. does CEL glow, check engine light, if not fuses are BLOWN if above 1,2. are ok.
  4. Is the IMMOBLISER light happy, not telling you its IMMOBILZED? per oper. guide? if yes stop here)
  5. turn the key to start (all this is in oper.guide) does engine starter crank the engine over fast? (y/n)
  6. yes, then its a cranks no start issue, if no,its starter key issues.
  7. Ok it cranks, do you have spark to all cylinders of unstated engine. seen above?
  8. if yes, then try test fuel, if not fix bad spark. scan PCM, see why the scan tool can tell you why it wont start, by cranking any engine, with tool connected, 1996 to now. do so now.
  9. and more, ask for more if you can get to here.

Won't start

You should have a Starter Relay in a Box under the Hood. Not real Familier with where the Box is on Yours. There is a Fuse Box with Relays and Maxi Fuses in it though.
