First Time Camry Owner In Need Of Some Assistance!
Hello all! I recently acquired my first Toyota Camry its a 1992 2.2L automatic LE model. I am finding some strange electrical issues I am hoping someone else has had to deal with and can maybe help me out! First the replace bulb light is lit on the dash but there are no bulbs out on the outside of the car I can find. When you first start the car it isn't on but the second you step on the brakes it comes on yet there are no brake lights out. I do however think this may tie into my second issue. On the dash where the shift pattern illuminates between the tach and the speedo every time you step on the brakes the little orange square around the R for reverse lights up and I do mean every time and in every gear! Lastly the reverse lights lag coming on. You put the car in reverse and it takes maybe 10-15 feet for them to illuminate sometimes they also go off before you take the car out of reverse. I really want to think this is all related but as I said this is my first Camry so I can't be sure. Any help would greatly be appreciated! Initial impressions of the car are great! It drives nice and the engine is fantastic even with 258k miles on it. If it continues this way it will for sure go on my "will own another list"
Thanks again in advance! |
The replace bulb system monitors the tail and brake lights.
If having issues with the gear indicator lights could be a wiring issue. Check for damaged wiring inside the trunk where the wire harness goes from the chassis to the trunk lid. Lid usage causes flexing which can damage the wiring. The wiring also runs power to the reverse lights. |
New owner myself. Good luck Mech :)

I had the same thing happen on my 01 Camry. I checked the tail lights and none were out. Later a friendly local cop told me my license plate illumination lights were out. That turned out to be the problem. I didn't even think to look at them. All it cost was the the cost of the bulb. The cop was a good guy and let me go!:)
