- Complete instructions on how to change the Front Turn Signal Bulbs or Indicator Bulbs on a Generation 6, 2007 - 2011 Toyota Camry yourself. You can also change the Side Marker bulbs the same way, these are 194 bulbs. This vehicle is a little more complicated than most to change the turn signals bulbs on, but it is definitely something you can do yourself and save money! Doing this job yourself will save you at least $30, maybe up to $60.
Thank you so much! Im a 19 year old girl and asked the local auto shop guys to help me (they couldnt figure it out). I just watched this video and went outside with a screwdriver and did it myself in about 5 minutes! THANK YOU! simple clear instructions and now i know for the future thank you
Fantastic!! You should be very proud of yourself and congratulations on getting it done! Thanks for watching.
Thank you,Toyota wanted to charge my mom $125 to change the signal bulb. I watched your video paid $7 for the bulbs and replaced it in 10 mins
Yes!!! You should be proud of yourself and i know that savings feels good in your pocket! That's what I'm talking about.....saving money on these kinds of jobs is so nice. Thank you so much for sharing that with me and other viewers. I really appreciate you watching and commenting....thanks Oscar!
Thats gouging.
same here I fixed it by myself thanks for great 👍
I loved the audio cue where you point out the bulb, thank you for that. Feels like I just won in a game show
Lol! Thanks John....yea I thought that would at least lighten up an otherwise dull video :) I appreciate you watching and thanks for the comment!
You sir are my hero. Took way less than 5 minutes to swap out my turn signal bulb on my 2007 Camry. I had to laugh as the car is nearly 16 years old and that is the first bulb I have had to replace (replacement of headlight does not count).
Thanks for watching! That's fantastic that you've never had to replace bulbs until now!
Thanks for the videos. I changed headlight fixtures yesterday and then went back in today to change the marker bulbs which only took a couple minutes with your help.
That's great! Thanks for watching!
I just finished changing the bulb in my 13 year old Camry. Took only 5 minutes to finish after watching this video. Thank you Dennis.
Thanks for watching, Dave! It's always nice to get a job done quickly!
I just wanted to say thank you. My front turn signal went out last night and I thought it would be an easy change, but I had no idea how to change it. Then I went to RUclips and found your video. Thanks to your video I changed them. I also watched your other video on how to change the rear turn signal bulbs and it was easy thanks to you. You the man. God bless you.
Thank you sir!! I'm glad the video helped.....thanks for the blessings and may God bless you also!
Thanks for the video.
The leading edge wheel well fastener is locked in when the slot is horizontal. Rotate it vertically to pull it out. You can tell by the shape of the holes in the clip the pin fits through (round with slots at 12 and 6). Because of this, if you do pry the center pin out when the slot is horizontal, it will probably break or be so distorted and chewed up , it won't stay in place on re-insertion. But they can be tricky to lock back in as they want to twist instead of cleanly rotating. Maybe a slight film of grease on the outer legs and the back hole in the clip would help them turn more easily
.
I would recommend changing the side marker light while you're in there, to avoid having to do the same job again. It's a separate socket with a small bayonet style bulb (T10, W5W, 194, 198), also amber colored. I also prefer to add dielectric (light bulb) grease to bulb contacts and wearing gloves to keep oils off the bulb glass.
All great info Tim! Thank you and thanks for watching!
Just stumbled on to this and what a relief. A huge thank you sir for not only a clear demonstration of how to execute this process but saving me the trouble of removing the entire front bumper and also save me a $125 bill to the mechanic. I hope you have an awesome day and a wonderful life.
Thank you so much!! I appreciate you watching and thanks for the really kind comment!
Thanks very much for watching! Please leave comments and share your suggestions. Don't forget to like and share!
i like your videos! continue like that maybe you will get one of the popular youtubers!! :D i hope :D
Thanks for the information! You made it easy to understand 👍
Thank you so much for this video. The shop was going to charge my daughter $16 per bulb to replace. I was able to do this and the license plate bulbs in about an hour. Great video and explanation !! Be well.
Thank you Scott! I appreciate you watching and I'm glad it helped save some money!
Thanks Dennis for saving me money and you made a difference in my day .God Bless you.
Thank you for watching, Jorma! I'm glad the video helped!!
Hi Dennis,thanks for all the advice. By the way people complain about noisy wipers.I turned the blade around and noise stopped. You probably know that trick.
Good tip. Sometimes you can wipe them with rubbing alcohol and stop the noise too. Thanks for watching!
Just crawled under there and changed it. It cost me $5 for 2 bulbs and another $12 for a set of plastic tools that I can use again. Thanks for a great video. I used to have to go to the library and find a service manual before tackling something like this.
Fantastic, John! Thanks for watching!
Dennis, my other-half wanted me to let you know your video is great. This afternoon, I told her I’d be a while doing whatever I was doing (important stuff). During that time, she viewed your video, went outside with a screwdriver, flashlight, and a replacement bulb, and did the job. I came in at the end to assist - turning on the lights to test. Thanks.
That's great Brent! I'm glad the video helped!
Thanks Dennis,
I was actually able to remove my left side marker housing and bulb without taking the front bumper apart . I removed the turn signal bulb first. And was able to get a skinny long screwdriver in the top and start the counterclockwise quarter turn of marker housing fixture .
Success !
Always good to have a 'win'! Thanks for watching Bill!
This is the best video for this procedure inside this garbage can called RUclips. Thanks Dennis !!
Thank you for watching, Sammy!
Kudos to your awesome instructional video. Shame on Toyota for making a simple bulb change into such a daunting task.
Thanks for watching, Nelson! I agree....a turn signals bulb should be accessible from the engine compartment and it should only take a minute to change it. They could have done a better job.
Thorough and to the point. Exactly what I needed. Thanks!
Thanks for watching, Douglas!
Thanks!!!!after I watched your video I was able to change my defective head bulb in less than a minute. You made me save some money, I did not have to go to my mechanic.
Fantastic!! Thanks for watching and for your feedback. That's what it's all about....saving time and money!
Thanks, that was very helpfull. I tried reaching from the top, it was impossible, then I watch your video. Piece of cake!
Nice! Thanks for watching, Christian!
Really good video. Way to get shots in those hard to reach places while you are doing things. It is the bulb on the end of the housing, but I would point out that the this is the bulb with three wires on the back if you just in there feeling around in the dark(likely). The others have two. Also, as mentioned in the comments, the first clip that you pop is set up to pop out one way, with the slot aligned horizontal. Turn it to vertical once pushed in to lock.
Thank you for watching!
I am glad I watched your video before going to an Auto Store because there is no way I can do this. I slide into a car on ice going 15 mph, which would have only put a dent in the bumper of a metal car! ($3400 repair bill). I usually listen to the radio, yesterday I did not and heard the left signal problem. Now, I plan to phone my Insurance company back and report this because I believe the repair shop either caused or missed this. The headlamps worked when I checked the car out following the accident yet they changed one anyway. I bought the car now, and only have 64,000 miles (maybe) on this car. Your video saved me time and perhaps money in the long term. I subcribed to you just in case there is anything else I need to know. You are very easy to understand and follow.
Thank you very much for watching and for the sub! I hope you get your car sorted out.
Watched this video once and was able to do it on the first try. Thanks for taking the time to post this video, Dennis!
Thanks for watching, Anthony!
Thank you for this well-described video. Having seen all the helpful step-by-step's in advance, I was also able to do this in 5min or so without any surprises/hiccups. Thank you!
Fantastic! Thanks for watching!
Perfect! I got my Side Marker Light Bulb replaced in no time. You saved me $50.
That's great, Carlos! I'm all about saving that hard-earned money! I'm glad you were able to get it done and save some. Thanks for watching!
Thanks Dennis for all your videos , so helpful and friendly instructions. God bless you.
Thank you so much, Jorma! I appreciate your kind words and thank you for watching!
Thanks for the video. I will be using it soon to replace the indicator bulbs. Weird my low beams(2) and indicators(2) all went out at the same time. Fuse was fine. If it happens again I will check my stereo installation from a year ago.
That is a strange thing to happen. I wish you well on figuring it out....let me know if I can help! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thank you Dennis, Sure saved me a lot of hassle
Thank you for watching, Asif!
Thanks! I was afraid I would have to remove the headlight. Thanks for saving me a lot of time and frustration.
Thank you Roger! I appreciate you watching and leaving a comment!
Great job explaining this, Dennis. My 18 yr old son will have fun changing this bulb for me tomorrow, before inspection. :)
Thanks Camelia! Sounds like a good learning experience is coming his way... :) I'm sure he will do fine and get past that inspection!
I just changed my light today from your video. Thanks a lot for helping !
Thank you for watching!
Thanks heaps! Hubby had the job done in 5 minutes. Just a note though, the bulb in Oz is a bayonet fitting. Cheers!
Thanks for watching, Julie! Thanks for the info too!
Thanks you DENNIS.... YOU ARE HANDSOME AND PROFESSIONAL.....NICE EXPLAIN.....I CHANGED MY LIGHT SO EASY 😂
Thank you so much, Armando! I appreciate you watching!
Excellent step-by-step instructions and video! Thank you Dennis!
Thank you very much for watching!
Very awesome! IThanks for sharing your video I tried it myself simple wasn't hard for me to do and I'm a women never thought I will be getting my hands dirty. God bless! Keep up the good work
Thank you Danielle, may God bless you too! That's awesome that you did it, and you should be very proud of yourself! Thanks
Thank you for stating the type of bulb you need and how to replace turn signal. It will save me money doing it myself. 3457A Awesome
I'm glad this helped! Thank you for watching, Madeline!
The best instructional video I've seen. Thanks for your thorough and precise vid!
Thank you for watching and commenting Donnell! I appreciate it.
Great video, was perfect and it was simple. Make sure bulb is fastened tight before put it back in because if it falls off it’s a B to get out of the light cover.
Junior, that is a GREAT point! If you drop the bulb into the housing, you probably have to take the light assembly out to remove the bulb. That's not a small job on this car. Thanks very much for watching!
Thanks a lot! Great video, easy to follow. I saved money and time. Win Win! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for watching!
Thank You. This procedure also works on 2006 Toyota Avalon, side marker bulb, very hard to turn CCW, was able to get regular pliers on just enough to turn. Thanks Again
Great, thanks for sharing that! Yes, some of these bulb sockets are very hard to remove...I've had to use pliers to remove a couple of them. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the instructions. I have learned my thing for the day.
Thanks for watching Robert! I appreciate it!
Awesome. Worked like a charm for a 2008Rav4
Thanks for watching, Matt!
Thanks Dennis. Crystal clear demo
Thank you very much! I appreciate you watching!
Thanks it worked great for me with out removing the top clip. Also the 3457ALL are not Amber.
Great video.
Thank you for watching, Claudio!
Excellent video and video editing! Thank you for sharing on how to change this bulb.
Thank you very much for watching Kalel!
Thank you so much for the quick tutorial, I won’t be able to do this quick fix by myself if I didnt see this video
Thank you for watching! I'm glad it helped!
great video. you did a good job recording the inside area when you stuck your hand in there. My blinker bulb burned out this past weekend on my 07 camry for the first time. When I tried to go in there from the top when I opened my hood I notice there was absolutely no way to get to the bulb, I was wondering how in the world I was going to be able to get to it. This video was very helpful. thanks a lot.
Thank you so much Chris! I hope you were able to get your bulb replaced.
Chris Sanche
Chris Sanchez same thing i experience today
I appreciate the video. I just fixed mine just right now thanks to you!
Thanks for watching, Christopher!
Lots of beautiful people are out there, you have all my blessing friend.
Thank you so much!! I appreciate the blessing and thank you for watching!
Thank you so much! I was about to take my bumper off to do this.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks Dennis! I looked at the rear signal bulb replacement and this was brilliant! Same for the front which made things a lot human. Saved me a lot of hassle and anxiety. Be safe!
I'm glad this helped! Thanks for watching, Murtadha!
Awesome job thank you very much for posting this. No way would I have ever figured this out on my own, thanks again
Thanks very much Eric! I'm glad you got it done!!
Great video! I did this the other day on my Camry. Really think Toyota could've design things a bit better! Not an easy side of the road fix if you get a bulb blow on a road trip. Luckily the bulbs seem to last a while.
Thank you for watching! I agree completely! A little more thought into it on Toyota's part could have surely come up with a way to change a bulb that didn't require removing the fender skirt.
@@dwcoffey I've heard of people converting the bulbs to LEDs, may have to look into that
I haven't had a chance to look into it, but I think it has to be a great idea. If I do it, I'll make a video on what I find.
This worked perfectly on my 2010 corolla!! Thank you :')
Great news, I'm glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
this video is a life saver and money saver also thank-you for that information
Thank you Kenneth! I appreciate you watching and commenting.
Thx for the video bro. about to change mines tomorrow. 🙌🏾
Thank you for watching!
One tip to add. Housing is 2 pieces and has some play. So when you pull out the housing and it doesn’t naturally hang (wiring has tension), you are making the housing a little shorter and the bulb won’t pop right in. If the wiring is tight because you only undid one screw to access the bulb, you’ll have this issue. You have to make sure to push the round part of the housing down (squeeze) and pop the bulb in. This took me a lot of time to figure out since my bulb wouldn’t go all the way down and click in place.
Thanks for watching, Mark!
Great video! Thank you! Just for those who have 2011 Toyota Camry, 7440ALL might be your choice. 3457A won't fit my 2011.
Great info Lloyd! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Lloyd. My local auto parts store gave me the 7440A bulb for my 2011 Camry as well. I was afraid I was going to have to get the one Dennis recommended. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for taking the time to do this. Big help!
Thank you for watching, Jeff!
Thanks so much for this tutorial. It was pretty easy thanks to your video.
I'm glad it helped! Thanks for watching, Daniel!
Thanks for this! Worked for my 2012 Corolla
That's great, I'm glad it helped! Thanks for watching, Mike!
Thank you just changed the bulb
Thanks for watching!
Great video! Very clear and thorough, thanks a ton!
Thank you very much for watching, Cruz!
Thanks Dennis. Very informative.
Thank you Bill! I appreciate you watching!
@@dwcoffey have you ever run across the bulb not fitting into the socket? When I pulled the old one out of the socket after rotating it slightly counterclockwise I notice the bulb was broke. I can only guess that part of the socket was melted due to heat from the bulb. Looks like I’ll need to get into the housing of the bulb.
I have had that happen, where the socket melts a bit and then won't accept the bulb.
This video really helped. Thank you.
Thank you for watching!
perfect video demonstration Dennis. Keep up the good work.
Thank you Norm! I appreciate you watching!
This was extremely helpful. Thanks so much, man
You very welcome.... THANKS 🎖️
Thanks again!
Great video. Much appreciated. You saved me $$$$
Fantastic! Thanks for watching!
Great job. Thank you very much. Made my job much easier.
Thank you for watching! I'm glad it helped.
Thank you this is so easy with your instructions
Thank you for watching and commenting Jim! I appreciate it.
Perfect video. Job complete. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Perfect instructions, thank you!!
Thank you Bill! I appreciate you watching!
Just a heads up my 2011 Camry XLE took a different bulb then recommended, mine was WX21W 12v
Interesting! I have not seen that before. Thanks for the heads up and thanks for watching, William!
Thank You for this value información
Thank you for watching, Sergio!
Thanks! The instructions were perfect! Good video
Thank you very much! I appreciate you watching and thanks for the comment.
Owner’s manual said to take it into the the dealership. I think not.
Right? I can't imagine what a dealership would charge for this. Thank you for watching, Kylwyn!
I have noticed that these fender screws tend to be flimsy and pop out sometimes for some of my customers. Don't know if it's because they changed the bulb or not but I think it is.
I expect you are right. They probably strip the threads when they put it back together. Thanks for watching!
Damn. Was watching this to help someone and have to say, I love my jeep. All I have to do is unscrew a bolt that holds the lamp cover in and pop that out and replace the bulb. Why make it so complicated.
Yes, its crazy that you have to go in thru the wheel well for a turn signal bulb.
Thanks Dennis!
Thank you for watching!
I spent all day today trying to remove the side marker bulb on my 2011 Camry and wasn’t able to. The blinker bulb comes off easy but I can’t remove that dang side marker bulb. Can you help or give me any useful tips?
Hi Marco, thanks for watching! It should come out the same as the the blinker bulb socket. I wish I had a trick for you sir, but I don't . It should come out by turning it counter-clockwise.
Same process for the front side indicator lights? My turn signals are fine, but one of my side indicator light bulbs has burned out.
Yes sir! Although I did not point it out, you can actually see the side marker bulb socket just to the left of my turn signal socket in the video. Same process and the side marker socket comes in/out the same way. I believe it is a 194 bulb. Thanks for watching, Richard!
@@dwcoffey thank you so much!
I can take out the parking bulb, but the signal bulb was too close to the corner. Also I don’t have enough space to counter-clock wise.
My Camry was 2007.
Updated. Actually my right rear signal was blinking so fast & front right signal was dead. So I changed my rear signal bulb and it also fixed the front right signal.
Glad you got it fixed! Thanks for watching!
Cool video. Thanks. Now i know how to do it.
Fantastic! Thanks very much for watching!
thanks Dennis ,good video ,i was just wondering if it would be the same for the Toyota Aurion park light bulbs
Hi Peter, thanks for watching! I'm not familiar with the Aurion as it is/was mostly sold in Australia and Asia. I'm in the US. But....it appears that it is a 'luxury' version of the Camry, so I'd think most bulbs etc are similar. I also understand that Toyota changed some of the Camry front and rear treatments to make the Aurion, so I can't tell if that affected bulbs etc. I'm sorry I can't be more help, but if I had to guess, I'd say the process and bulbs will be the same or at least very similar.
Thank you!! Super helpful!
Thank you for watching, Aaron!
Good info. Thank you
Thank you for watching, Jacky!
Great Video! helped me out Thanks mister
Thank for watching sir!!
Thank you so. Love your video Really help me out.
Thank you for watching, Mark!
Easy way to change the bulb just take the whole tire off so you can have full space
Thanks for watching, Jamalmohamed!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks mate, this Kiwi appreciates your video, Toyota you suck, how dare you make a lovely car like the Aurion and make changing bulbs so damn hard!
Thanks for watching, Rick! I agree, it shouldn't be so hard to change a bulb.
Great video! On advance auto it says 3457a bulb does does not fit my 2010 Camry XLE, but rather a 7440a. Not sure which to get?
Thanks for watching, Nicholas! Yes, for a 2010, I show a 7440A or 7440NA for the turn signal bulb.
dennis what about the other bulb close to the front turn signal it is the same procedure to get it out?
If your model has a small bulb on the outside of the turn signal bulb, yes...same procedure. If you are talking about the bulbs closer to the middle of the car, I have another video showing how to replace them. ruclips.net/video/f1JHnW8Ruek/видео.html
Thank you very much...good man God bless you
Thank you too! I appreciate it and God bless you as well! Thanks for watching.
Thank you very informative!
Thank you for watching and commenting, Ayana!
would taking off the bumper be of any help during this process? im changing my headlight assembly so im going to have to take it out regardless. just curious if you think it will help
btw youre a great teacher. some people can make something this simple a algebra equation. you helped me put LED’s in & all, gotta say you keep it simple!
Thanks for watching, CJ! And I really appreciate the kind comment! If you were just changing the turn signal or the side marker bulbs, I don't think removing the bumper cover would give you any better access. Taking it off basically just gives you access to the screws holding the headlight assembly in. Since you'll have the headlight assemblies out anyway, that will definitely give you the best access! :)
Thank God for this vid
Thanks Cammi, I'm glad it helped! Thank you for watching!
