Camry :: Auto Lights Come On In Dashboard Area When Dark Outside

What this feature is called for my Camry to where the lights automatically come on in my car in the dashboard area? Sometimes the lights come on when it is light outside, so that bashes the theory posed to me that the light comes on when it is dark outside.

Are there any other auto lights that I need to know about? This is a Camry hybrid.

Camry :: 2002 V6 Dashboard Lights Up When Turn Key To Run Position

Last week, my 2002 V6 Camry decided it didn't want to start when the key was turned. That was with my wife driving. By the time I got out there, the car was running just fine. She said it didn't turn over, didn't click, nothing.

Today, it did it again, but it didn't have that magic reawakening like it had last week. I tried jumping it to see if it was the battery, but it did not change anything.

Here's what happens: Turn key to run position, and the dashboard lights up.

Turn key to start position, and there's silence. The clock on the dash turns off (as normal), but the only noise under the hood is the sound of the starter relay making a single click.

Does that mean the next place to look is the starter Solenoid? Can I jump the solenoid like on an old car to see if that starts her up?

Camry :: Lights On Dashboard Appears Initially But Go Off When Car Does Not Start

Recently I have faced a new issue with my car. Sometimes and not always when I try to start my car, it does not. The lights on the dash board appears initially but once the car does not start they go off.

I then go and use my keys to hit the negative terminal of the battery. Once I do it for a couple of times(hit the terminal with key for about 10-15 times). All lights come up on and then I can start the car.

-- The terminal is not corroded.
-- The terminal does not look loose.
-- The battery has been checked and is GOOD

Camry 2012+ :: Three Warning Lights On Dashboard Eventually Turning On

Starting a few days ago, three lights on my dashboard display started to turn on. Sometimes they don't turn on for a few minutes after the car is running, but they do eventually turn on. The first is a red "BRAKE" light above the gas gauge. The second is a yellow/orange "ABS" light above the speedometer. And the last is a yellow/orange symbol of a car sliding, or swerving, this one besides the RPM gauge. What do they mean and why would they suddenly start turning on together?

Toyota - Camry :: 2000 - Lights On The Dashboard Turn On But Car Won't Start

2000 Camry 4 CYL ... Very sporadically, the car won't start. The battery was replaced a year ago, so that's not the problem. The lights on the dashboard turn on, but there is no sound and the car won't turn on. After turning the key 10-12 times, the car finally starts. It happens in rain, no rain, mild or hot weather. There just does not seem to be a reason. We had the mechanic change the spark plugs, but that didn't work. He doesn't want to start replacing things willy-nilly until he can duplicate the problem in his shop. We just don't want our daughter out late at night, and have THAT be the one time the car refuses to start.

Camry :: 2003 - Dashboard Alarm Lights Flash Intermittently?

I have a 2003 Camry. Recently, the dash board signal has started to turn on i.e. Battery,abs,brake, etc. when I accelerate. Around 1000 rams the light come on,then will turn off below the 1000 rpms. Now, at 2000 rpms the heater fan will increase speed to maximum.

I had the battery tested and it checked out ok. Could this be the alternator?

Toyota - Camry :: Intermittent Electrical Power / Flashing Dashboard Light And Warning Lights Turning On

I have a 2007 Toyota Camry with electrical problems that started showing up recently. One day the check battery light turned on and about 15 minutes later the AC would lose power intermittently. After parking the vehicle that day I tried to start up and only heard a rapid clicking sound. I exchanged the battery since it was still under warranty and everything seemed to work fine for one whole day. The next day the battery light turned on again, followed by the ABS warning light, and then the airbag warning light. Within about 5 minutes the dashboard back light started flickering and other warning lights started lighting up randomly. Within a minute of that the car shutoff and would not start back up again.

Prius (2004-09) :: No Dashboard Lights When Car Started

I saw two older posts regarding no dash board lights. It is super cold here as in minus 3 degrees. Somewhat unusual for Kansas. When I started my car I had no dash board instrument lights but the MPG monitor does work. Also when I tried to shut down the power button wouldnt turn the car off and consequently the key would not release. I took it to Toyota and he told my I had the dimmer turned down(I had already tried turning it several times) to the off position. He put a new battery in the key remote and things seemed to work fine. This morning it was another sub-zero day and the same problems happened all over again. This time they diagnosed a sealed junction box on the driver side that has poor connections that seem fail due to the cold weather that needs to be replaced. It will all start all over again when it sits over night in the cold.

Prius (2004-09) :: Red Triangle Along With Bunch Of Other Lights On Dashboard

I have had the Prius for a little over 2 years now. Bought used and currently close to 150K miles on it and have put on about 25K miles a year.

This evening on way back home, when I turned on the Prius, I got the Red Triangle along with a bunch of other lights ON the dashboard.

Pressing the power button and everything would take much longer than usual - the lights(on the clock) was dim, the windows moved up and down rather slowly.

Eventually, i had to jump start and carefully drive home. Afraid it would stop somewhere at stop signs or long red lights, i constantly kept pumping the accelerator(not sure if that was good). Seems like need to replace the 12V battery.

Touareg :: 2004 V8 Selector Gear Lights Up On Dashboard

With my '04 V8, recently on my dashboard the selector gears light-up entirely, where as typically just the selected gear is highlighted with the orange box when operating. Make sense? P, R, N & D all are highligthed in the orange color.

It does this inconsistently in both automatic and tiptronic. Just last year I started using the vehicle to pull our pop up camper. No problems last year and it pulls fine. Two weeks ago on our first weekend out camping, using the tiptronic I noticed that all speeds where highlighted.

Sound I be concerned about this? I called local dealer, they had no clue. I called VW and they said take it to a dealer. The vehicle seems to be operating just fine.

Prius (2004-09) :: Brake - Triangle - ABS - VSC Lights On Dashboard?

I have done some maintenance on a recently purchased 2004 Prius. Namely, replaced the inverter cooling pump, the right front wheel bearing and rear brake pads.

At a certain point, the brake, (!), VSC and ABS lights came on on the dashboard.

My wife is driving this car so I did not get the exact moment when the lights came on after my repair jobs.

I then replaced the 12V battery with a new one and reset the lights with the PIN 4-13 jumper on the OBDII connector. I did retrieved the error codes of each light and I googled them without any result and I now lost the paper where I had then written on

Today in NY the temp in the morning was 0 d F. As I started up the car I hear a rough aggressive movement coming from the engine compartment then the Ready sign, beeping and the check engine light, (Giant red triangle ! Emergency sign), and the (!) sign.

Prius (2004-09) :: At 65 MPH All Dashboard Lights Lit For A Second And Then Died With Burning Smell

History: 2005 Prius has 130,000 miles and was rear ended in mid November (less than 2 months ago) on drivers side rear.

Yesterday my husband was driving at 65 MPH when all the lights on the dash all lit up for a second before the entire car died. The car was DEAD, wouldn't do anything except the lights worked (I'm assuming cause it's the starter battery). Ran hazards for approx an hour waiting on tow truck but the rear left light only flashed approx 1 in 10 times compared with the rear right light. Car had a terrible burned smell.

1.5 hours later the tow truck shows up and says "your car smells terrible". We towed it to Toyota Dealership.
