We haven't mentioned the windows/door locks recently though, how would the tail & headlight relay effect those?
The inegration relay would obviously but I didn't think the door and window motors were behind the other relays.
I'm at the office without my wiring diagram.
 
Have a good one

In your situation with a main voltage spike or reversal, that power could have taken out any number of electronic circuits. In your case we're zeroing in on the relays, the integrated circuit, or the light stalk switch.
 
Once you verify if the relay is good, then the next place to isolate will be the wires to the stalk switch which you can check. You can check those contacts with ohmmeter. If the stalk switch is then good, then you've proven that your IC is the problem. But at this point, it could be either of the three (and I need to reverify with the schematcis that nothing else could be the problem....I'm shooting from memory here which is always dangerous)
 
Assuming that your wiper is continuing to work, and transmission continuing to shift okay.

Alot of problems:windows/locks taillights/shifter/dash by untold1

Hello all,
 
Well I have been working on my Camry 95 V6. Problem I'm having is that I have no tail lights(though the headlights work and the turn signals for the rear work too)/No power to windows or power locks/ the Automatic shifter is locked up/ No lights to the dash either. I have checked the fuses(continuity) and pretty much taken the the whole dash apart. Any insight on how to fix this would be great. Before I pour gas on the car and torch it. lol

Can you tell me whether your backup lights work, or not.
 
If they do not, then I suspect you have a blown 10A Gauge fuse. That 10A Gauge fuse also effects the door locks and windows.
 
and then sometimes the root cause of the 10A gauge fuse blowing, is worn wiring in the trunk, up where the wiring comes from the body and attaches to the moving trunk hinge.
 
But we're getting a little a head of ourselves. Check to see if the backup lights work, and if not, check the 10A Gauge fuse in the drivers knee fusebox. It's in the 2nd column from the left. Swap it with another 10A if you need to.

Hi Kiawah,
 
Thank you for replying to my problem. The 3 fuses that you mention (25A Door, 10A Gauge, 30A Power) are all these located under the dash by the left knee coin door access?
 
Are there any relays that come into play in my case?
 
Thanks very much.

Hello and thanks for the reply.
 
The back up lights work. I checked the 10A fuse anyway. It was ok.
 
Just a quick explanation of what I have done so far. I have the whole truck and dash apart because I was looking for a a burnt wire or a cut one. Im down to all the wires other than getting the dash board/steering wheel/and passenger air-bag off. Any idea on fuse-able links? I cant seem to get anything that shows them. Though I might be looking in the wrong direction.

Main fusebox, left knee.
 
25A Door, is the 4th column over, the middle of 3
10A Gauge, is the 1st column, third up from the bottom
30A Power, is a big fuse off to the lower right. There are 3 bigger fuses in a column, it's the middle one.

Hi Kiawah,
 
You were absolutely positively 100% correct!
 
As per my post #598, I did check all of the small fuses in the main fusebox. What I didn't check was that 30A Power one because of that small plastic hose in the way and due to the bad angle that fuse is in.
 
Today, I immediately went to that fuse and guess what.....it was blown. I temporarily replaced it with a 40A one from the top.....and the windows started working again. In your post #599.......your last sentence was absolutely on the money. To make this a permanent fix, I will make sure to repair those exposed wires.
 
I am so glad I was able to come across this forum. I tried so many different forums with no luck. Thank you Kiawah for your kind help in resolving my issue.

You're welcome......Super, glad it worked out.
 
I've only done a rewire job once on an old vette I used to own many years ago where I had this problem. It's just a very tedious job cutting and soldering wires. Be sure to use stranded wire as a replacement, and I'd suggest taking the door panel off so that the new wire extends from inside the door, thru the flexing area, and then over to where it's past the flexing point in the dash area.
 
If you use solid core wire, it will soon break, as solid wire can't stand the flexing like stranded wire can.
 
Good luck.
