Found the problem after checking out the schematics. The service shop had just replaced the integration relay, when they put everything back, they forgot to connect one of the plugs. Happened to be the one to the dome light. Problem solved.

Electrical Problem by cball

I have a 2000 toyota camry xle and one day right after an oil change three strange electrical problems appeared. The remote for the car alarm stopped working, the interior clock appears dim and always resets to 1:00, and the interior dome light doesn't work either. I checked the fuse box under the steering column which was fine, then I proceeded to check the fuses under the hood. I found one that was blown and it corresponded to the dome light. I thought it was going to be an easy fix, but the second I tried to put a new fuse in it, it blew. Has anyone got any suggestions to this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You have to isolate what is on that circuit, which is causing a short and blowing the fuse. First, try taking the bulb out of domelight....it's a long shot, but easy to try. If that doesn't work, you're going to have to look up the electrical schematics (or perhaps the manual) to see what all is on that circuit, it certainly would be more than a single dome light. Unplug as many devices as you can, and then put a new fuse in. Hopefully if you've disconnected enough, you would have disconnected the failing device. Start plugging the items back in one by one, until you find the device that blows the fuse again. You will now have isolated the problem, and you'll have to then fix and/or replace the problem device.
 
Here's a 2002 electrical schematic, which may be different than yours, but may be a reasonable reference.

Thanks alot for your advice, I am going to try all that right now. The wiring diagram you attached should be considerably helpful as well.

91 Camry Seatbelt Problem by koss
May 13, 2006 (10:19 pm)

Hello all. I'm borrowing my Dad's 91 Camry while I work on the trans on my Ranger and the blown head gasket on my Subaru. A couple of weeks ago, the auto-engage seatbelt on the driver's side of the Camry just quit. No hesitation, no slow down, just didn't work when I went to get in one day. I've gotten under the dash and reset the breaker (it was tripped I think). Nothing. I knew the passenger side was working so I switched the breakers. Passenger side still worked and driver's side was dead. All blade fuses under there check out fine. Any other suggestions besides the dealership and / or a new unit? Just to be clear, this is the electric motor unit that automatically runs the shoulder belt into place when you open / close the door. Now it just sits in the door closed position. Thanks

These don't last forever, so unfortunately you are probably looking at a replacement.
 
Or you could live with it, since at least the belt is stuck in the proper position for driving. Is your dad limber enough to duck under the belt when getting in or out of the car?

Yeah, maybe he can pull it over his head, but I was hoping someone had dealt with this and knew a mechanical answer. I like fixing things. I also noticed that the ball in the retractors are stuck and the seatbelts are useless as-is. I'm going to use the de-magnetizer trick on those. Thanks anyway.

Power Outlet Prob by gem_tim

I have a power prob with my 99 Camry LE V6 and was wondering if anyone had seen it or had any suggestions on what to look for before I sacraficed my baby to a mechanic. Anyway all of my power outlets are not working. I think what could have caused it was I bought a Belkin charger for my Ipod and that may have something to do with it. I looked at the fuses for these outlets in the dash fuse box and they looked fine. Any suggestions would be appreciated
  
Thanks

You may not be able to see that the fuse is blown. Try swapping it with another fuse of the same amp rating.

Hello, new to the board here - hope I am posting in the correct place. Looking for some advice. The AC light on my daughters 98' Camry has started flashing. Car has approximately 125K on it. Manual says take it to the dealer. Any thoughts or info on what the flashing light means?
 
Thanks so much!
