remove plug and socket ,separate the two ,remove rubber inside socket ,,use a lite duty magnet to drop plug back in.use rubber to remove the plug
as far as plug popping out must be that ur using wrong plug but if ur striped out go wit some Teflon ??

Hi,
im having this problem with my camry where it will crank but not turn on. I noticed yesterday when i would accelerate car, it felt like it was stalling a bit it kind of felt like it was missfiring actually. And this morning it turned on fine and when i was at a light i pressed gas to take off on green, and the car felt like it ran out of gas and shut off on me. I cranked and cranked and nothing. i did notice the smell of gas when i was cranking coming from the exhaust.
I did have a similar problem over a year ago and i couldnt find no solution to it. i just left car in drive way for over 2 weeks then i tried it and it turned on and worked fine till this morning. has anyone had this problem? or does anyone know what the problem could be?

2001 Camry XLE with 11,000 miles.
 
Inside passenger door handle suddenly wouldn't open door which can be opened from outside.
 
Door locks are fine.
 
Would appreciate thoughts about cause of problem and potential repair cost.

Check the Child Proof rear door lock switch should be located near the latch on the door

The rear door lock switch is working. I can hear it and watch all door locks move as I flick the switch on the driver's arm rest.

take it apart. Most likely internal door handle piece made from plastic got cracked because someone applied excessive force opening the door.

Check in your owner's manual for child proof rear door lock switch, I was not speaking of the door lock plunger but a switch near the latch assemble in the door frame itself

Repair completed for $50 at local body shop.
 
Toyota dealership and Firestone both wanted around $200 for parts and labor.
