Top 20 2000 Toyota Camry Solara Questions & Answers

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. Hi Joe Find a garage that has one of these https://www.google.com/search?q=right+angle+air+drill ..

100% was the battery load tested to show that ---battery may be failing have it and alternator tested

Have someone check the fuse links. Probably melted one when battery terminals were switched.

Check mounting surfaces at antenna. Corrosion or looseness and the antenna loses its ground to the body.

Take it to a qualified repair shop . Some point in time you have to realize you don't know what your doing , don't know how to test !

check wires connection

you gave up on the wrangler. fuses wires battery dead. use a voltmeter to find power loss this is just basic electrics 101. why is this hard? grab meter grap schematic off mitchells read it now probe the noid to find the point of 12vdc loss. same on all cars.

Flasher relay

Do you have them turned off in the balance control mode?

Have you checked the fade control on the unit for being in the front speaker option only?

Your owners manual will tell you which fuse and its location on the fuse box panel, which is located behind the pull down tray, to the left of your steering column.

I would look at the alternator. With everything that is going wrong it all comes down to charge. It would seem that the alternator is only working part time as it is on its way out. I am guessing that as you are driving it is only charging the battery sometimes and other times it is not charging the battery causing your issues. The alternator can be checked at any parts store for free without taking it out.

great question. 1MZ-FE the V6 has a fuel rail and all rails made have a plug there (pipe plug) to test it or a mounted Schrader valve (rated for fuel not tire kind at all.) if not there we add one. on all cars. or make up and adapter there are many ways, depends on year. the plug on rail , the valve. on newer cars a quick disconnect line , you add matching Tee fitting. some have test port on the fuel filter is outside tank. here is 95 rail with no fitting, cant find 2000 the 2002 is non return system (2000 i dont know) summit racing sells a banjo bolt that is hollow to fit rails. remove banjo at crossover, put in new bolt and bam, got a port.

rear main seals mean that the transmission has to come out. Allow for 8 hours for the job. An accredited service centre will be able to do it in less so get quotes first

My guess you have a fuel delivery problem. Has the car been properly maintained? If the fuel filter has been replaced there are other parts of the system. Wild guess is a fuel pressure regulator may not be performing as it used to, therefore the fuel injectors are not getting the pressure they need. It could also be a fuel pump and or its fuel pump relay.

Several things can cause the warning light to come on, if you read your owner's manual it will explain this to you. Check that your parking brake is fully disengaged when you're driving around. Check your brake fluid level, there is a float sensor in there that will indicate a low level of fluid - low fluid can be from normal wear of the brakes, have them checked as they may be getting close to worn out or there might be a fluid leak somewhere.

there is no shredder valve. ever get a tune up this decade? if not , now be that moment? does CEL lamp glow keyon and stay out running no matter, get it scanned, see if there DTC errors ??? that be first. checks.

Quite likely the rattle is a relay or solenoid that is trying to activate but there's not enough power to make it work properly. The solenoid on the starter motor will make such a noise when it's not getting enough power. Depending on location, getting 5 years from a battery is optimistic. Since you're mentioning the battery almost right away, I think you may have your answer but have not had it or your charging system tested. Your regular repair shop will be able to test your battery and charging system for you for a reasonable cost and will help you determine what steps you need to take next.

should already be properly gapped if you are putting them in new
