I'm now the proud owner of a 1994 camry le v6 and I have checked all of the lights but the rear indicator lamp stays on in the car. It is driving me insane... Any theories gentleman?

What do you mean by rear indicator lamp? A rear turn signal, running light, side marker light, what? And, which side is it on?

If none of the bulbs are burnt out, it indicates that one is ABOUT to burn out. As bulbs get ready to burn out, the resistance goes up and it triggers the light on the dashboard.

I guess I just have to wait for one to go out then huh?

I thought all the lights were working on my dad's 93 LE. I looked up and down, on the garage door when I had it closed for the reflection, I thought no lights were out. Then I noticed one of the stop lamps on the trunk lid was out. Changed one bulb, alot of black on the bulb, so I decided to change the other bulb too, cause it would eventually go out too. Light indicator off.

Mine does something similar, except every now and then when i hit the brakes and make a complete stop, the light will come on for the rear bulbs, then when I let the brake go the light goes back off...
