How to replace a Toyota Camry's brake light

[@reneepoudrier1377]

Thank you for giving me a clear step by step video. My daughter and I were able to replace the bulb ourselves!

[@Iscaper]

Glad it helped!

[@cathybenton5981]

Thanks to your video, this 69 yr. old grandmother was able to replace the brake light bulb of my 2003 Toyota Avalon in a jiffy! Also appreciated the tip on not touching the replacement bulb with your fingers.

[@trevorwillis3804]

Not touching bulb with fingers applies to headlight bulbs as they get very hot for long periods.

[@TotallyCoolNails]

This is actually so easy to do it would be embarrassing to take it to get repaired....

[@Tyler_Mayhem]

Such a simple thing, but helpful to people who aren't confident.

[@kjo72684]

These videos are going to save me so much time and money now that I can change my own lights. Thank you!

[@Iscaper]

Awesome, thanks Kasey for watching.

[@mmercier0921]

Toyota is usually easy maintenance. Other cars you need the whole tool box and a hundred dollars worth of parts.

[@yutanalee3463]

Thank you to make this video. I will try to replace myself instead let the dealer charge $50 for 2 minutes job.

[@ThePrettyMelody]

Very useful video. I was able to follow the procedures. Although the brake lights works sometimes and sometimes does not...why is that? I don't know If I should just replace it with a new bulb or perhaps the issue lies elsewhere?

[@hdps99]

I replaced my tail, signal, brake light per your description's referral to carcarekiosk. It works on my 1997 Camry V6. Thank You.

[@Iscaper]

Great, thanks for the info.

[@berniemackattack86]

Good helpful video L Scaper 💪🏽💯 But one bit of info that i didnt catch was what size is that bulb im pretty familar with different bulbs but ive never seen that bulb before what size is it ?

[@Iscaper]

We don't have this Camry anymore but I think the bulb was a Sylvania 7443. Here's a link from Sylvania to look up bulbs: www.sylvania-automotive.com/auto-bulbs.html/?CarCareKiosk

[@Iscaper]

Thanks for taking the time to leave feedback.

[@Iscaper]

All the bulbs should be accessible from the trunk area where you pull back the cover and expose the brake light assembly. You idenitfy the correct bulb then twist counter clockwise on the base to remove it.

[@isaacannanjr2371]

Thanks for this video KZbin is truly a Godsend platform. I went to Autobarn which is the Australian version of AutoZone (I'm from USA currently living in Oz) and bought a light bulb for my 2004 Toyota Camry Sportivo and I asked one of the workers is it hard to put in the bulb they said not really but if I had difficulties to call them and book an appointment a week advance and they'd charge me $20-30 to do it. I said screw that watched this video and put the bulb in myself under 5 minutes....

[@Iscaper]

Thanks for watching and G'day mate 🙂

[@sarp5716]

It worked! You saved me money, time, and stress. Thank you.

[@Iscaper]

Great to hear!

[@grimskull416]

Had to replace both tail and brake lights on one side of my Camry 2004. It was a bit hard for me to turn, so I used a pair of pliers to help me. Just a little bit of grip and I was able to twist it out of it's socket. Replaced the bulbs with ones I bought for a total of $15 CAD and it worked like a charm. Just as easy as I thought.

[@govindrajg224]

Huy Nguyen Thank you. It was hard for me to remove it. I too had to use some cloth for the grip.

[@ThePrettyMelody]

I checked the old light bulb again today and I guess it burned out... So the problem was the old light bulb (thank goodness, it's not something else). I was able to easily change it :) Thank you so much for the video!!

[@suzannelindsay2247]

As usual with me, nothing is simple. My bulb didn't snap back in. When you say you test it to make sure it's working...will it just light up automatically if it's in correctly?

[@wilson4143]

Can you post a video for the brake light on the spoiler how to remove install?

[@Iscaper]

Awesome. I'm glad the video was helpful.

[@erickim2025]

thanks a ton the video is most helpful also thanks to those who reminded me NOT to handle the bulbs with bare hands

[@Iscaper]

Are you referring to the back up light?

[@PyrozPlayground]

Thanks for the video. I knew it was something simple, I just didn't know which way to unscrew the fixture. Awesome! Like new! 👍🙏

[@Iscaper]

Glad I could help!

[@Fl0wright]

Wow thank you so much for this video! I don't have to pay for the labour + inflated price of the light bulb at my next service!

[@Iscaper]

I agree, it can be expensive to go to a dealer or shop for this type of repair.

[@almaluna1796]

iScaper1

[@Iscaper]

We sold our Camry or I could just walk out turn on the lights and tell you. This is what I've found online: There are four bulbs in the tail light housing on a 2002-2006 Toyota Camry. They are, from top to bottom; the marker(running), turn signal, back up(reverse) and stop(brake)/tail light bulbs. I'm guessing the bulb you're referring to is the marker.

[@jonathanvogel8859]

thank you~!!!!!

[@mmercier0921]

These videos are why youtube is still useful.

[@Iscaper]

Thanks Michael for watching.

[@BowieLiving]

Thank you for sharing! I appreciate solutions like this on KZbin!

[@jadenkorr3997]

Thanks for the clip. I saved a bit of money doing it myself.

[@Iscaper]

Good. That's the best scenario just having a bad bulb. Thanks for watching.

[@Gollf9]

Thank you very much this video made a difference for me thanks for thinking of people who could totally use this

[@t4n8lu3]

Thank you for the video, just found out one of my break lights is out and I'll use this guide. Do you happen to know what the model of the light is?

[@Iscaper]

I just gave the guy at O'Reilly Auto Parts the year and model of my car and he got the correct bulb for me.

[@Iscaper]

Thanks for the comment.

[@ddk80]

My neighbor told me the passenger side brake light is out. I don’t have any lights illuminated on my dash indicating the brake light is out. Is there no warning light for the 02-06 Camry?

[@JSBPisgah]

The little door in the trunk liner to give you access. They didn't need to do that. it's thoughtful. Nice job Toyota.

[@Iscaper]

I think so too!

[@truettberglund5046]

Thanks! I was pretty sure I knew how to do this but just wanted a confirmation.

[@Prrcomputers]

Excellent instructions! Saved me paying a mechanic to do this, thank you!

[@TheJangel]

Very helpful and easy to follow. Thank you!!

[@Iscaper]

Thanks Julio.

[@Iscaper]

Good luck with the replacement.

[@seniorme2412]

Hey old news but dumb question. Why is my tail light working but brake light not on that bulb? Doesn’t it make more sense to either be all or nothing?

[@Iscaper]

Simply go to an auto parts store and give them the make and model of your Camry. They can look up the correct bulb for your car.

[@Iscaper]

If you replaced the brake light bulb and are getting intermittent brake light, it could be a problem in the wiring to the brake light or possibly a problem in the brake light switch. Not an easy problem to solve.

[@Iscaper]

Thanks, they're very similar. I'll put a link in the video description that covers 1997-2001 Camry.

[@fiona3929]

Lol I just tapped on the wires of my light and it came back on, magic ✨

[@Iscaper]

I wish that trick worked for me.

[@dianelaverdiere4143]

I did it my self with your help. Thank you very much.

[@Iscaper]

That's great. Congratulations and thanks for watching.

[@AdmiralCecil]

There's actually two brake lights. The large bulb like the one above in this video is a little bit snug when you try to turn it loose. Then there's the one to the left (closest to the trunk), this one was pretty easy to loosen up and FYI uses a smaller bulb.

[@DTD110865]

What if the light doesn't pop out of the lens assembly that easily?

[@LivDwan]

what is the most inner brake light used for? I replaced all my bulbs for my brakes (4 total, 2 each side). And when I tested it, only the 2 outer lights lightened up. Is this supposed to happen or all 4 supposed to light up when you brake?

[@Iscaper]

+Olivia Dwan Outer bulb is brake and tail light. I'm not sure what the inner bulb is.

[@ursala3000]

+iScaper1 Should be the reverse light.

[@linhphan6148]

Which kind of car do you drive?

[@linhphan6148]

I think I know what you tried to say. The two inside bulbs are not for your break. They will be on whenever you turn on your headlights. Only the outside bulbs light up whenever you step on the break.

[@H2Otodafullest]

Now is it just as easy to open the back part for a 95 Camry? Because I feel like I may need a tool.

[@Iscaper]

Here's a link to a video that might help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5aWZaycjNSghZY

[@deez771]

great job, iscaper! is it the same for a '98?

[@Iscaper]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@abosista911]

Thank u so so much for that U got my back dude..

[@thomasalundago6332]

Brake and tail light is in one bulb?

[@Iscaper]

Thanks Jind.

[@geogeo740]

Thank you man appreciate your time

[@Iscaper]

Glad to help!

[@trini_boi2414]

That bulb you changed is a 3057 bulb right?

[@Iscaper]

I think it was a 3057.

[@robertguzman3282]

Thank you for your help sir I appreciate the video

[@Iscaper]

Glad it helped!

[@dairlom]

Hi, one of the brake light bulbs on my car is broken. I want to buy a new one and replace the old one, but I do not know the mode of the suitable light bulb. My car is Camry too, and could you please tell me the mode of the brake light bulb for Camry? Thank you!

[@jmoe894]

Thank you...straight to the point!

[@TheWindyanne]

Super easy and fast thank you

[@Iscaper]

Welcome!

[@foreverdrift]

Very helpful video! Thanks :)

[@Iscaper]

Glad it was helpful!

[@portillowilliam706]

This helped me out. Thank you so much!

[@Iscaper]

Thanks William.

[@coconuttechnician]

No not the backup light. The backup light is in the segment where the outer casing looks "white." What I'm referring to is also in the red casing of the brake light. It seems like there are 2 bulbs there. Do you have a # I can call you on to explain or email address?

[@coconuttechnician]

There is a bulb right next to the brake light; what's that light please?

[@ethipic]

Thank you for making this Video

[@Iscaper]

Thanks selam for the feedback.

[@sdrury01]

Gloves. The oil from your hand will cause that area of the bulb to burn hotter.

[@chrisclassical7]

still a great watch in 2024

[@Iscaper]

Thanks!

[@julieolsen3348]

Thank you so much! This is so easy! Thank you for saving my time and money!

[@Iscaper]

Thanks Julie, I appreciate the feedback.

[@TruthFLA]

great. thanks for this. worked perfectly

[@daryllskraba9650]

Again, another thank you.

[@coconuttechnician]

Sure; the marker. If it's the one that's next to (adjacent) to the brake light bulb. Sorry I am not an expert with the terminologies for the different components. But you're probably right. How do you replace the marker light then in that case?

[@ofivecharlie]

Thanks for posting!

[@ruthxie2464]

Thank you for the video.

[@xiao8585]

thanks man about to go try

[@alanrosenthal6323]

The Toyota dealer wanted $50 to do this ($40/hour with a 1 hour minimum). I bought the bulb on Amazon for about $7 and replaced it in 2 minutes.

[@Iscaper]

Alan Rosenthal Thanks for the information.

[@iWillFightYouInComments]

Alan Rosenthal Unbelievable. Wow, just wow. Or...you could've gone to your nearest Autozone and have them check...well its not even a check, just have 'em see the burned out bulbs and have them replace right away...

[@whitechico27]

you could have bought the bulb for $1.00 at NAPA?

[@HIHELLOMEET]

thanks for nice video with info

[@Iscaper]

Thanks for watching.

[@ryano292]

Thanks for your help

[@Iscaper]

Happy to help.

[@JavierGarcia-wt3xr]

The bulb won't sit into the base. It won't click in. The base appears to be pushing against it, sort of rejecting it. It is the right bulb and if you push down hard enough the light turns on but then it gets pushed out again to the point where it is still sitting in the base but not clicked all the way in. Any thoughts? Anyone know what this part is called so I can replace it?

[@Iscaper]

+Javier Garcia Sounds like you may have the wrong bulb. The bulb should easily snap into the socket.

[@shakirajenkins9776]

Thank you so helpful

[@Iscaper]

Glad it helped.

[@52772]

Thank for the information

[@hailherrosner]

Never Ever touch the light bulb with your fingers use a clean paper towel or microfiber cloth, the oil from your fingers will burn out the bulb early.

[@Iscaper]

Good tip, thanks for posting.

[@ammaaransari098]

hailherrosner what about gloves

[@khanSherKhan]

Thank you. I was helpful.

[@michaelcrockette3881]

would have been nice 2 mention type of bulb used(even though it’s written on the bulb) but otherwise good video.

[@Iscaper]

Good point, I'll remember that for future videos.
