Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Toyota Camry Solara. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. INSPECT STEERING PAD SWITCH ASSY 
    1. Disconnect the radio receiver assy R2 or R6 connector.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the values in the table below.
