One problem related to dash wiring has been reported for the 1997 Toyota Corolla. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I am experiencing electrical problems w/my dash and spoiler(doesn't light up fully, causing difficulty to see graphics during night and early morning driving. ) all fuses have been checked/replaced, however this problem still persist. Advised per dealership to disconnect spoiler light due to it "only being cosmetic". Also experiencing problems w/odors from air conditioning coming inside the vehicle. I was advised these odors would subside, due to service maintenance of air conditioning unit. These expenses have proven to be costly. Never have I been advised/notified of any recalls on my vehicle. Even during repair from dealership,I wasn't advised the above items were being questioned.
