Toyota Camry Pencil Light Transmission Wahala. by tabisegroup(m): 10:50pm On Mar 05, 2021 |
Please I need an experienced information on this issue. My pencil light just developed a fault that is very complex. I noticed that when the car is driven for a long time or if it's parked where it's exposed to direct sun light, the mileage numbers will go off and the gears won't select any more. I will need to off the car and keep for a long time before it can normalize. What's the issue and please the possible solution? Pictures attached

tabisegroup: Whenever the odometer goess off, does the speedometer work? Next time drive and see if the speedometer rises at all? If it doesn't, my novice suggestion is that you check the speedometer, maybe replace it. 2 Likes |

Mayor555: No.. The speedometer does not rise at all |
Re: Toyota Camry Pencil Light Transmission Wahala. by Mayor555(m): 11:17pm On Mar 05, 2021 |
tabisegroup: Okay... Then when the odometer is on, does the speedometer rise?? If it does, does the transmission select well? If yes, then you have your culprit, a failing speedometer. Either way, if your speedometer does not rise; odometer on or not, the culprit is the speedometer. Additionally, you can scan. God bless and keep calm. 2 Likes |

I had similar issue with my 1998 camry, the odometer was blank, speedometer wasn't rising & my issue was transmission hardly shift from first gear to 2nd, d tachometer will nearly get to 5000rpm & sometimes i have to release my leg from throttle b4 it will manage to shift, subsequent gears shift pretty fine. All i did was replacement of the instrument cluster completely & everything came back normal. 4 Likes |

Wao, I experience the same problems with my 1999 camry. I spent close to 60k without solution. What I observed was that. I just changed my car tape and the guy that fixed it did not fixed it properly. I was busy going from one mecho to another, from one rewire to another. It wen an electrician use that there guage to connect the tape that the problem stop. I was even advise to get another gear that my transmission has gone bad. If I had seen this thread, it might save me from spending some amount working in the gear 1 Like |

A SCAN WILL DO NO HARM. WHY NOT DO THAT FIRST AND LETS SE WHAT CODES ARE STORED? SAVE YOUR SELF STRESS AND WASTING MONEY THROWING PARTS AT A SIMPLE PROBLEM. |

Dez10: I am currently having this issue with mine. Although all my instrument cluster including speedometer works very fine. The problem i have is Late Gear shift from. 1 to 2 except i take my leg off the throttle briefly before it shifts. Other gears seems to work pretty fine. Could it be a sensor or my gear is dying? |

temmym4: this exactly what i am facing........late shift from 1 to 2 ..... 2 onward select fine .... honda , kindly update how u resolve this thanks |
Re: Toyota Camry Pencil Light Transmission Wahala. by temmym4(m): 8:56am On Jul 21, 2021 |
femarse: It was the gear Valve body. It wasn't supplying ATF as it should. The first mistake i made, never leave your gear slipping for long, you will end up changing worn parts more than you bargained for. Gear repair is cheaper and perfect only if you have a competent Gear mechanic, but if u have an incompetent one, i suggest you change the whole gear because you might end up spending much more than the amount of a new gearbox. 2 Likes |

tabisegroup: If OP or anyome is still having this issue, i came accross this particular issue few months ago while while tryiing to change a fuse from the fusebox under the hood. One of my headlight fuse got blown and i was trying to replace it in the fusebox, then i notice my damn rewireb bypassed a particular wire on one of my relays which popped out from wherever it was placed when i opened d fuse box. (Which kind wahala be this na) i tried to insert it in a place i thought it might pop out from but boom, i got a particular relay blown out. Double wahala. My speedometer stopped working, odometer wont show up, the gear wouldnt select until i depress the small emergency button beside the gear stick ( I don't know what it is called), the gear selection wont even appear on the dashboard. Na so i drive am go meet rewire... He only replaced a particular relay and everything started working. |
