Table 1 shows two common exterior lighting related problems of the 1997 Toyota Avalon.
| Problem Category | Number of Problems |
|---|---|
| Hazard Flashing Warning Light problems | |
| Tail Light problems |
On the Avalon the turn singles are on the same circuit and go througa a resistor in the emergency blinker switch. This resistor failed and left the car without turn singles or emergency blinker lights. This circuit should be redesigned so both systems are not inop at the same time.
The tail light bulbs burned out 5 times, causing the tail lights to be inoperative. Dealer cannot determine the cause. Please provide further information.
