Here is the reset procedure:
1. Have the Valet Button in the OUT position. ( It is located on the dash panel left of the steering column)
2. Connect the battery - the alarm will sound.
3. Put the key in the ignition and turn to the ON position,
4. Push the Valet Button to the IN position.
The alarm will be reset, and the Valet Button will glow red.

Move the Valet Button to the OUT position again.
Repeat steps 3 & 4 and the Valet Button will become unlighted.
The car will start and everything will be fine.

SOURCE: toyota 1997 camry door locked

I had a similar situation. It is due to malfunction of you door assembly. You need to replace it. It is hard to remove the door panel with door locked. I was able to manage it some how by removing pretty much all screws except for the 2 at the fornt side, beside the dash board. But in another instance with my friend I was able to help with a metal hanger. Slide the metal hanger beside to dood glass and try to lift the lach manually to unlock the door right from the door assembly. It worked and then we replace assembly for his car too.

SOURCE: toyota camry 1997 3.0 v-6 code p0446

That code is for the evaporative emmisions system. Here is a link to an open forum you can go to, this will help you understand what it is, and why. The vehicle on the site is a van, but the code, and parts involved are one in the same, so don't worry about the difference in vehicle. The van is a toyota, and this is the information on the p0446 code. Hope this helps you.

SOURCE: 97 Toyota Camry aut. door lock and dash clock not working properl

i HAD the same problem.... first check the fuse under the hood labeled 'dome' should be a 7.5A it is blown for sure... also if you are good with wiring and at working on cars look at the drivers side doo wiring (between the inside door jam and the drivers side floor... its the wiring that goes through the door to the cabin.... anyway you have to take off the door panel and remove a small cover on the floor of the drivers side.... now remove the two connectors that go to the wiring harness.... you should now be able to loosen the grommet and pull the wiring harness through the door via the speaker hole (you should have removed the speaker already) you now must inspect the wiring which is most likely frayed and/or broken now fix the wiring with some new wiring and crimp connectors and heat shrink your work.... should be good as new... have fun getting the wiring back through the door... it will be bigger due to the crimp on connectors etc..... i did a quick write up of this so i hope it is understandable

2003 Toyota Camry engine immobilizer

The engine immobilizer is an anti-theft system found on many newer vehicles, including the 2003 Toyota Camry. When the engine immobilizer is activated, the car's engine will not start unless the correct key is used. This helps to prevent unauthorized individuals from starting and driving the vehicle.
To deactivate the engine immobilizer, you will need to use the correct key. If you do not have the correct key, you may need to have a new key made or have the immobilizer system deactivated by a professional.
If you are having problems with the engine immobilizer system on your 2003 Toyota Camry, it is recommended to take the vehicle to a Toyota dealership or a qualified mechanic for diagnosis and repair.

Cant turn key to start 1997 toyota camry. tried all keys to car. after hours of jiggling key it catches and turns ignition to start. Do I need to replace ignition or tumblers in switch. If so HOW

Hello,
Yes you do need to charge the ignition barrel as it sounds as if the current one knakered, try going to the scrappy but be sure to get a barrel that they have the keys for also remember to keep your other keys for your car.
