Electrical problem
1994 Toyota Camry Two Wheel Drive Automatic 120,00 miles

when I press the brake petal after starting, the lighting icon(outline of car w/dashes,lower left-hand corner) on the dash comes on and stays on from then on while driving. One rear running bulb seams to blow soon after I replace it. Possibly related(???) my dome light blows right away when I replace it. Overall lighting on dash used to go bright and dim,or completely out, until I removed the rear running bulb that blows. since removing it,I haven't noticed the dashboard problem of dimming and brighting.

HI there,

Thank you for the donation,

Have you had the alternator output voltage checked, as the symptoms of the light going bright & dim are one of the signs of a faulty regulator in the alt, this may be an over charging problem, so I feel that we first need to confirm or discount this first.
