Hi guys. Just yesterday my parking brake light(BRAKE) came on and wouldn't go off even when the parking brake is disengaged. I read about it online and was told to top my brake reservoir fluid, which was actually low. I topped the fluid and pumped the brakes but the light won't go off. My brakes still work fine and my parking brake works as well. Please any idea on what might be the cause? It's a Toyota Camry 2000 4cylinder Thanks in advance |

RazaqMB: Check rear bulb and replace faulty one |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 11:18am On Jul 02, 2017 |
RazaqMB: [s]If abs is fine there are 2 possible culprits, 1. Faulty parking brake switch.[/s] 2. Faulty brake oil level switch. |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by RazaqMB(m): 11:25am On Jul 02, 2017 |
inze:thanks but it's not the rear bulb because that has its own indicator light plus all bulbs are working |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by RazaqMB(m): 11:29am On Jul 02, 2017 |
GAZZUZZ:Thanks. Where can I find these switches? Also I unplugged the wire connected to the oil reserve and the light went off(but when I engage the parking brakes, it comes on and off when disengaged) and when I plug it back, it stays on. I don't know if that will help narrow which switch it is. |

depair: Had same issue with my 06 Accord, reserve tank was overfilling because coolant was not going back to the radiator after expansion, i found a leak on the hose which goes from the radiator to coolant reserve tank.. Once i changed the hose, very thing normalized.. If no leaks around the the reserve tanks, then change our radiator cover |

My 2az-fe 2003 Camry engine has no thermostat and I want to purchase and install one. Please what is the cost of one and do I need any electrical wiring . Any advice is welcome |
Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by GAZZUZZ(m): 6:30pm On Jul 02, 2017 |
id4sho: toks is about 3-5k no wiring involved. Note Please do not buy an ancient of days nigerian used thermostat that has been swimming in water for years. 1 Like |

aizakun:Now let's get this straight. The SECURE light comes in three colours: Red, Green , and Yellow. Could you take a snapshot of your instrument cluster to confirm yours as orange? Did you work or replace the radio or the Navi unit? Or did you even replace your keys recently? Your reverse light and A/C are two different and independent issues. Provide some background information leading to these issues. |

Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by MarkAfoo: 2:01pm On Jul 21, 2017 |
I need your your advice, my 2006 Rav4 radiator plastic side(attached) broke and I got it repaired at Owode Onirin since I was closed to that place when it happened. My car has been over-heating since then and the problem comes up with coolant/water in the reservoir, the engine thermostat is place. My mechanic advised me to take the radiator to the radiator specialist who opens and flushes the cell or buy a new one if I can afford it. I don't know whether to go for flushing of the existing or to buy a new single cell that comes with the car or double cell as advised by mechos. Please I really need your advice.
