If i remeber correctly that has to do with the torque converter lockup. Could be as simple as a piece of crud that got into the valve body, the solenoid itself or the torque converter clutch went bad.

Try to find online a gen 4 Camry Service Manual. It should list the trouble code and the procedure to check to find out if the solenoid is bad. Either that, or get an alldata.com account for your car, it'll have most of the same information.
