Change Tail Light Bulbs and Rear Turn Signal Bulbs on a Toyota Camry

[@maureenshepherd-danner2747]

Thank you for making the video, it helped me to change my brake light. I was so delighted, I did it.

[@dwcoffey]

That's great, Maureen! Thank you for watching!

[@mc1652]

Thank god for KZbin and your video I have a husband but he never has time to help me with anything so I need to learn to do things myself Thank you ❤

[@dwcoffey]

I'm glad this helped! Thank you for watching!

[@Sixty5South]

10/10 straight and to the point and even showed which bulbs to get which I wasn't expecting! Wish I could give this video 100 likes!

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you very much!! I appreciate you watching!

[@Rubin4749]

*@Dennis* , Dude I wanna tell you something. I just fixed the passenger side brake light on my Mom's car because of *YOUR* video. There are other YT videos on this topic, but none as *thorough* and detailed as yours on the physicality of taking the light out and putting the new one in. I'm not mechanically inclined, but my Mom's car is safer now, and my Mom is safer, without dealership labor costs because of you and your teaching ability. I am *GENUINELY* grateful. I hope God blesses you, your family, and loved ones, because today you saved me money and made my family safer.

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate your support, thanks for watching and I'm glad this has helped!!

[@hakunamatata6464]

thanks, bud. i appreciate your videos. i got an old 07 camry that is bullet proof and reliable. other leases have come and gone, but i refuse to let this one go. your videos have helped keep her well maintained.

[@dwcoffey]

I'm glad these vids are helping! I have an 03 F150, same deal...reliable and cheap. Thanks for watching!

[@brecard1850]

Dude! Thank you. This has helped me save at least 150 bucks at the dealership.

[@dwcoffey]

That's what I'm talking about! Thank you so much for watching and leaving a comment! I'm glad this helped and I'm glad that money stayed in your pocket!! Great job, Bre!!

[@Phil_4_8]

You are a lifesaver, my friend. I'm the furthest thing from a mechanic that you'll ever meet and even I was able to replace a bulb with this well done video. It would be an honor to enjoy a can of beer with you. Now, let me see if I have any. Oh, you have a six pack right there in your trunk! How convenient.

[@dwcoffey]

LOL! And I share too!! Thanks and I'm glad this helped you!

[@AkiraKeiKyo]

thanks for the 1/8 of the turn counterclockwise comment. I wasn't sure how to get it out!!! 10/10 vid

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you very much for watching! I'm glad it helped you.

[@dwcoffey]

That's fantastic! I'm glad the video helped and even better, I'm glad you saved some money by doing it yourself!

[@dma999999]

So glad I came across your series of Camry maintenance videos. Very well done with clear explanations. They have saved me a lot of time and trouble. Thank you.

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you so much for watching and I'm glad they've been helpful!

[@DOMINICPAULL]

My 2007 Camry SE just failed a state inspection because of a bad brake light. Before going, I checked all the other lights from turn signals to headlights and all were ok. I didn't check the brake lights because I had no helper and didn't want to go through the hassle of using a stick to hold the brake pedal. I assumed they were ok because all the others were. My foolish mistake cost me another trip to the dealer to re-check. Thanks, Dennis, for your excellent video that made changing the brake light so easy.

[@dwcoffey]

I'm sorry you had to do it twice, but I'm glad to hear that this video helped you get it fixed quickly! Thanks for watching!

[@timeforbeans]

Cool video. This helped me upgrade my Camrys back up lights to LED.

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching!

[@hartsdesirehomestead]

Perfect Video. I wish they were all as well done as this one! Thanks!

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you, Ty! I appreciate you watching!

[@byusaranicole]

Very clear on concise! Plus the product numbers for the bulbs... Perfect! Thanks so much!

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you for watching, Sara! I'm glad it helped!

[@daisong2661]

this guy explains everything very clear, I saw other videos from this guy, always excellent

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching! and thank you for the kind comment!

[@hutukaTB]

Replacing all the bulbs with LED alternatives and this is very helpful! Thank you!

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching! That's a great idea! Did you find a particular brand of LEDs that work well? I'd like to do that too.

[@hutukaTB]

@@dwcoffey I went with a generic brand on Amazon called LncBoc and it works well, very bright! But any with good reviews there should do :)

[@harigoyal]

Very good video. Make it super easy for me to replace tail light bulbs. Thanks

[@dwcoffey]

Excellent! Thank you for watching, Hari!

[@jagjit.singhbassi7033]

10/10 well explained and very simple way.Thank you

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you very much! I appreciate you watching.

[@solsagavestand5399]

My one-piece factory plugs were quite a tussle to get off. Had to yank em out, damaging them in the process. A tight place to work for big hands! Again, the bulb mounts were tightly installed, turning them to remove them a real effort. Toyota did its owners no favors. Thanks for a good lesson.

[@dwcoffey]

I agree! Toyota could have made is easier for us. The worst ones on my Camry were the tag bulbs. I got them out without damaging them, but I am surprised! Thanks for watching!

[@chrisjnally]

Awesome vid, thanks Dennis my brake light went out and this showed me how to replace it myself.

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you Chris! I appreciate you watching and I'm really glad it helped! Congrats on getting it done yourself and saving some money!

[@candaceb5870]

Super helpful video! Changed my daughters light super quick.

[@dwcoffey]

That's awesome Candace! And doing it yourself, you probably saved $30 or more. Thanks so much for watching!

[@patriciastahlecker8241]

Thank you Dennis, that saved me from searching through my manual today... great video, clear and to the point! Now if I can only get my husband to let me get a new car. I've had my Toyota since buying it brand new in 2007 but my husband says keep it because it runs so well. 🤔🤔

[@dwcoffey]

LOL! Thanks for watching, Patricia! My wife won't let me buy her a new one....she says the same thing! haha. Good luck....maybe you can talk him into it! :)

So I managed to change it in about under a minute, the hardest part was turning the bulb counter clock wise, my fat fingers couldn’t fit lol, so disclaimer it’s super easy to turn the bulb if ur fingers can fit. Thanks for the help!

[@dwcoffey]

haha....thanks for watching AJ!

[@janoyelliott1435]

[@dwcoffey]

Thank you for watching, Janoy!

[@Vanguard521]

The bulbs were hard to unscrew by hand on my car but other than that this did the trick.

[@dwcoffey]

Yes, some of those bulbs are very, very tight. Glad you got them out and thanks so much for watching and commenting!

thank you sir! do you have a video on how to replace the lens on the rear quarter panel?

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching, Stuart! I don't have a video for that yet, I'm sorry.

[@Dan-ty7cb]

Hello Dennis, this process seems to be different on my 2010 Camry. The tail lights are white on the bottom and red on the top. Is there supposed to be only 1 bulb on the trunk lights? Seems to only be a reverse bulb, no tail light. Thank you for any clarification.

[@dwcoffey]

Yes, the 2010 has a slightly different tailights than the 2009 in my video. I'm not 100% sure about this but seems like I remember the reverse lights on the fender assembly is LED and the red tail light has a bulb. Also seems like both the taillight and reverse lights in the truck lid have bulbs.

[@rjvagv1]

Perfect, thanks!!

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching, Gene!

[@daltonreynolds7524]

I have an 09 Camry the tail lights don't work but the brake lights do. They are the same bulb as a double function. Do just replace them what gives?

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching, Dalton! Yes, some bulbs have 2 filaments in the same bulb. If you have regular bulbs, not LEDS, then you can just replace the bulbs and all should be fine.

[@japonesa5186]

Gracias! ✨✨✨

Denada. Thank you for watching!!

very helpful...thanks

Thank you very much Tony! I appreciate you!

[@LuckyStrike-ov9cd]

Hi there is there a problem if I use 921 on the 194 led bulbs and thank you for your videos

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching and thanks for the question. The 921 bulbs are 17 watt bulbs vs the 194 which is a 4 watt bulb. I believe the bases are interchangeable, so you should be able put the 921 bulb in there, , but the 921 is bigger, hotter and brighter. I think there is probably plenty of room for the bigger bulb to fit into the housing, but I don't know if the additional heat generated by that bulb will cause a problem with the lens, the reflector, or possibly the housing. That would be my main concern.

[@pacogonzalez2010]

My 2007 Camry doesn't have a lower bulb slot in the rear panel. There's a small white electrical connector where the video shows where the brake light socket is. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Where is the brake light socket? I can't find the brake light bulb socket anywhere.

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching, Paco! Is your Camry a Hybrid? The Hybrids have a LED brake and tail light. I think the only way to replace those is to replace the whole housing assembly.

[@HUSTLEORSTARVEENT]

I used this video to take my blinkers out, because I never use them. 😉

[@dwcoffey]

LOL! Seems legit.

[@SimianIndustries]

Video doesn't reflect my 07 correctly. Can't find brake light

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks for watching, Brice. Is your Camry a hybrid? The taillights on the Hybrids are a little different in appearance. The gas Camrys all have a red taillight on the truck lid, the Hybrids taillight on the truck lid is white/clear. But, your brake light bulbs should still be where the video shows them. If one of your brake lights work, have somebody sit in the car and press the brake pedal while you stand behind the car and see what bulb lights up. That will tell you where the brake light bulbs are.

[@SimianIndustries]

@@dwcoffey it is a hybrid. I'll take a look for that, thank you!

[@SimianIndustries]

@@dwcoffey turns out it is a different trim and it didn't have a bulb in that spot at all. It's a LED array I suspect is built in but you have to remove the whole thing to find out unless someone had the factory service manuals. So, your video is mostly complete

[@rubenaguilar8218]

I know this is off topic here but.. does anyone know where to find the compressor clutch relay on 2009 toyota camry? Ive have looked on the internet with no explanation of which relay it is..i heard thats its marked "MG CLT" but its not there..people been saying "its in the fuse box behind the battery" and i said "i know that dip shit but which relay is it?" Lol the closest one i could find is a "MSB" relay...thanks guys..god bless

[@dwcoffey]

Rueben, check this link... scroll down till you find the diagram....it shows the MGC relay in the corner of the box. fusesdiagram.com/toyota/fuses-and-relay-toyota-camry-2006-2011.html

[@rubenaguilar8218]

Dennis Coffey which relay is it? What is it labeled under?

[@rubenaguilar8218]

Cause relay is not labeled on the fuse box for the compressor clutch relay

[@dwcoffey]

Did you follow the link I gave you and see the diagram? It is the relay marked MGC (magnetic clutch). It should be the only relay in a corner of the box, but follow the diagram to be sure.

[@rubenaguilar8218]

Ok thank u

[@SSwizzyMusic]

10-11 doesnt have a bulb for brake lights it's a led housing you'd have to replace the whole led housing if the lights went out 😭

[@dwcoffey]

Thanks! I see that now...only the reverse, tag, and turn signal lights are traditional bulbs, the taillights are LED. Well....the good news is, that unless there's some damage, the tailights should not have to be replaced. LEDs should last for the life of the car. Thanks for watching and thanks for the heads-up!

[@andreadaigle2248]

You didn’t show how to take out the bulb
