Help: Gen 3 Camry warning light

[MRQtwinturbo]

I'm not that familiar with the warning lights on the dash of the gen 3... but what does the light underneath the Check Engine light mean? It looks like it's for the rear of the car... possibly rear brake light out??

[MRQtwinturbo]

All you camry guys around here and none of you know??

[Tarzan]

does it come when you push the brake pedal if so it's one of your bulb light out you need to check your bulb or you might have one of your tail light out

you stand behind the car while someone presses the brake with the head lights on to find out which light it is, then you replace that bulb. simple.

also, check your blinker fluid.

Did that already, sigh. Right now I the tail light warning comes on only while I press on the brake and it goes away when I'm not pressing on it. All of the other lights work fine. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Does anyone know where this sensor is located?

Thanks.

The sensor box is inside the trunk on the drivers side, its a little white box, VERY expensive to replace. Luckily there is a dirt cheap solution, the box runs the idiot light directly, so all you need to do is cut the wire that runs the idiot light.

TO DISABLE THE LAMP FAILURE IDIOT LIGHT, SIMPLY CUT THE SMALL YELLOW WIRE W/ GREEN TRACER FROM THE LAMP FAILURE BOX.

CRC has a very good one that sells for $5-10, good stuff for all electrical connections.

So you just put this grease into the bulb socket, correct? Sorry for the stupid question.
