Buzzing Sound From Under Trunk Area

[khanh007]

Last night I was in my garage cleaning up, and I heard a light buzzing sound coming from somewhere in my garage.

I searched everywhere, and it ended up coming from underneath my 2007 SE near the trunk.

When I got on my knees and stuck my head near the bottom of the car I could distinctly hear the buzzing. And no...it's not a cell phone or beeper in the trunk...

The buzzing sound went away after a minute or so.

I'm not overly concerned, since the car drives great, but I'm a bit curious.

Is there an electrical device in the rear of the camry that randomly or intermitently turns on?

Thanks

There is a purge pump for the evaporative part of the fuel system. The owners manual states it will activate around 30 min. after shutdown. Don't be alarmed.

LOL know what I just realized... Toyota guys are so anal about sounds coming from the car. I own a toyota and a honda, my honda rattles and makes all sort of sounds all day long.
