Trunk Wiring problems of the 1999 Toyota Camry

Two problems related to trunk wiring have been reported for the 1999 Toyota Camry. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Trunk Wiring problem

Failure Date: 01/05/2006

The wiring harness powering several rear mounted lights severed completely from its master cable. This harness runs along the left hinge of the trunk lid. The result is that I lost my tail lights, rear side marker lights, backup lights and license plate light. I consider this a safety issue inasmuch as I am subject to a citation for violation of safety requirements. I don't mind replacing consumable items, but a wiring harness should not fail in normal use, especially if it affects safety lights on the vehicle. Reference # for my complaint to Toyota: 200601100356.

2 Trunk Wiring problem

Failure Date: 08/03/2005

Shifted (automatic transmission) into reverse. Fuse blew. Power windows and all dashboard gauges stopped functioning. Wiring harness, at the hinge, in the trunk had to be repaired.
