I "WAS" GONNA GET YOU A WIRING DIAGRAM FOR YOUR "EXTERIOR LIGHTS"....SO YOU COULD LOOK THINGS OVER, MAYBE FIND A GROUND THAT WAS LOOSE OR BROKE.

I JUST GLANCED THRU "MITCHELL I"----IN THE "CAMRY LE" SECTION ALONE, THERE ARE OVER 130 SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS.......THEN WE RUN INTO "SPECIFICS"

IN ORDER TO OBTAIN THE CORRECT DIAGRAM FOR YOU, I NEED:

EXACT CAR NOMENCLATURE (ex: LE, LTD, SAHARA, TOWN CAR)

ENGINE SIZE

ANYTHING WEIRD, LIKE, DRL (DAYLIGHT RUNNING LIGHTS) ETC

THESE DIAGRAMS ARE EZ TO READ AND USUALLY LIST LOCATIONS OF STUFF

YOUR TURN

THE MEDIC

Check the wire harness that runs along the left side of the trunk hinge.
The harness moves with the hinge, so you could have a broken wire there.
This is a common problem with this car.
