| Description of the problem | My name is [xxx] and i am the third secretary of the embassy of the republic of turkey in lima. I own a toyota camry le 2007. The speedometer and tachometer will cease to indicate proper readings and drop to zero. The tachometer will then bounce between zero and what i can only assume is a close approximation of the actual engine rpm. At the same time, the abs and parking brake warning lights illuminate and stay on for the duration of the "episode". These last anywhere from 10 seconds to 10 minutes. In the meantime, the car runs normally from what i can discern. I can be driving down the highway at 70 or sitting in the parking lot idling and these episodes occur. There are no other indications that something is amiss... No rough idling, no engine stalling, just the display. This is a 2007 toyota camry, 4 cyl, 5 spd automatic. I have inspected the transaxle input and output shaft sensors and they appear to be in good working order. There are no indications of oil buildup or broken/shorted wires. Connections all look good from what i can tell. Authorized toyota dealers in peru do not accept to inspect and repair my car since it is a us model. I am waiting your response for this serious problem. When i browse the online forums. I have found that many people suffer the same problem. I am sending you a youtube link that exapmlifies my problem. Https://www. Youtube. Com/watch? V=rdtgabjrfds information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S.
