2000 TOYOTA CAMRY trunk

Even if the anti±lock brake system should
fail, the brake system will still operate
conventionally. However, when the ºABSº
warning light is on (and the brake system
warning light is off), the anti±lock brake
system is not assisting brake performance
so that the wheels can lock±up during
sudden braking or braking on slippery
road surfaces. Have your vehicle checked
by your Toyota dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
DRUM±IN±DISC TYPE PARKING BRAKE
SYSTEM (1MZ±FE engine)
Your vehicle has a drum±in±disc type
parking brake system. This type of brake
system needs bedding±down of the brake
shoes periodically or whenever the parking
brake shoes and/or drums are replaced.
Have your Toyota dealer perform the bed-
ding±down.
Brake pad wear limit indicators
The brake pad wear limit indicators on
your disc brakes give a warning noise
when the brake pads are worn to where
replacement is required.
If you hear a squealing or scraping noise
while driving, have the brake pads
checked and replaced by your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible. Expensive ro-
tor damage can result if the pads are not
replaced when necessary.
Luggage stowage precautions
When stowing luggage or cargo in the
vehicle, observe the following:

Put luggage or cargo in the trunk when
at all possible. Be sure all items are
secured in place.

Be careful to keep the vehicle bal-
anced. Locating the weight as far for-
ward as possible helps maintain bal-
ance.

For better fuel economy, do not carry
unneeded weight.
CAUTION

To prevent luggage or packages
from sliding forward during braking,
do not stack anything in the en-
larged trunk. Keep luggage or pack-
ages low, as close to the floor as
possible.

Never allow anyone to ride in the
enlarged trunk. It is not designed
for passengers. They should ride in
their seats with their seat belts
properly fastened. Otherwise, they
are much more likely to suffer seri-
ous bodily injury, in the event of
sudden braking or a collision.

Do not place anything on the filler
panel behind the rear seatback.
Such items may be thrown about
and possibly injure people in the
vehicle during sudden braking or an
accident.

Do not drive with objects left on
top of the instrument panel. They
may interfere with the driver's field
of view. Or they may move during
sharp vehicle acceleration or turn-
ing, and impair the driver's control
of the vehicle. In an accident they
may injure the vehicle occupants.
NOTICE
Do not load the vehicle beyond the
vehicle capacity weight specified in
Part 8.
The vehicle identification number (VIN)
is the legal identifier for your vehicle.
This number is on the left top of the
instrument panel, and can be seen
through the windshield from outside.
This is the primary identification number
for your Toyota. It is used in registering
the ownership of your vehicle.The vehicle identification number (VIN) is
also on the Certification Label.

(d) Replace the battery for transmitter.
(1) Using a screwdriver, pry outward the cover.
(2) Remove the battery.
(3) Set a new battery into the transmitter.
(4) Install the cover to the transmitter.
3. REGISTRATION OF RECOGNITION CODE
The recognition code of the transmitter is electronically regis-
tered (written to and stored) in an EEPROM contained in the
wireless door lock ECU. This makes it possible to register up to
2 different codes in the EEPROM.
New recognition codes can be registered after all previous
codes have been erased. A transmitter code can be registered
into the EEPROM by following the steps numbered (1) to (5).
(1) The wireless door lock ECU and remote control mir-
ror switch are connected to each other via a PRG
terminal, and the GND terminal of the remote con-
trol mirror switch connector is grounded to body.
Remove the connector from the remote control mir-
ror switch, and use a test lead to short the PRG and
GND connector together. As a result, the PRG ter-
minal of the wireless door lock ECU will be
grounded to body and will cause all transmitter rec-
ognition codes previously registered in the EE-
PROM to be erased. At the same time, the ECU will
respond by operating once the lock and unlock
functions of all the doors, and the open function of
the trunk lid.

BULLETIN
March 31, 2000

The trunk courtesy connection for 1999 model year Camry vehicles equipped with a Port
Installed Option RS3000 (V3) has been relocated from the luggage compartment light
switch to below the dash (lower finish panel) on the driver's side in the Instrument Panel
J/B. (Refer to Illustrations A & B on page 2.)
The location was changed to improve the installation process.
A splicing connector is used for the new trunk courtesy wire installation (blue) to the
vehicle's wire harness at Instrument Panel J/B (red/yellow).
The previous location is the same as the dealer installed RS3000 trunk courtesy
connection to the luggage compartment light switch connection.
For service related purposes, this bulletin describes the procedures to locate the new
trunk courtesy connection at Instrument Panel J/B in vehicles equipped with PIO
RS3000.
The remote transmitter has two
buttons, Top and Bottom.The status monitor has a Toyota label,

New Location:
These steps below are to be followed to
locate the new trunk courtesy connection
when servicing Camry vehicles equipped
with the PIO RS3000 TVIP.
1. Remove the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the driver's step cover.
3. Remove the driver's cowl cover (1
nut).
4. Locate the Connector Junction Block
in the driver's cowl area. You will
notice a RED/YELLOW wire routed to
the Blue 10P connector which
terminates at an adjacent splicing
connector. This is the TVIP Trunk
Courtesy Wire.
5. Disconnect the Blue 10P connector
from the Connector Junction Block.
With the tab of the Blue 10P
connector facing up, look at the back
(wire side) and locate the wire in the
bottom row, second space from the
right, which has the splicing connector
attached to it. This is the Vehicle's
Trunk Courtesy Signal Wire.
6. After completing the parts inspection
and repairs if applicable, reconnect
the Blue 10P connector and install all
previously removed parts.
Previous Location:
The White 1P connector for the Vehicle's
Trunk Courtesy Signal is located at the
trunk courtesy lamp switch near the trunk
latch in the vehicle's trunk.
