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

Replying to: untold1 (Jul 06, 2009 9:38 pm) 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.

Replying to: kiawah (Jul 07, 2009 3:55 am) 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. |

Replying to: kiawah (Jul 07, 2009 9:33 am) 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.

Replying to: titus_pullo (Jul 08, 2009 6:55 pm) 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.
