3rd & 4th Generation (1992–1996 & 1997–2001)Toyota Camry Discussion for years: 1992-1996 & 1997-2001
Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
Just acquired a 2001 Camry CE. What I found odd is that there is no dashboard gear indicator light that is found between the temperature and fuel gauge. All the pictures I have seen have one. I even checked to see if perhaps a light was out but there is nothing there but a solid black area. Has this been left out on this particular car, or is there not supposed to be on there?
CE probally did not come with it. CE came stock with a regular antenna and a couple odds and ends that were different. I think by 01 they had standard power locks and mirrors though.

It does have power windows and locks. The antenna is built in. Every picture I see of the CE, though, has the gear indicator display on the dashboard.
Is it Automatic or manual? Manuals don't have the gear light strip. If its an automatic, i don't know what to say... Every automatic cam 4th gen i've seen has the gear light strip.

Is your car a manual or automatic? I was thinking that perhaps they mistakenly put on the manual dash plate instead of the automatic one.

I have 2001 camry LE (V6), it is an automatic and has one. Perhaps it is just the CE that doesnt...
Maybe it has to do with either being manufactured in the US or in Japan? My 99 LE was made in Japan, my 99 CE in the U.S.
Hmmmmm Interesting point! How do you check to see where it was made? So far, in this thread, there are now three people who have CE's that do not have the dash indicator.
