Camry engine overheating

Hi, I've got a 2007 Toyota Camry, gasoline engine, with only 32304 km. Recently, the engine's been overheating, and the check engine light keeps popping on. I also noticed some coolant leaking under the car, probably from too much pressure. Could this be a software glitch in the control unit? Or maybe a wiring issue?

Summary of the thread

A 2007 Toyota Camry is experiencing engine overheating and a check engine light, with coolant leaking possibly due to excessive pressure. The issue might be related to a software glitch in the control unit or a wiring problem. It is suggested to inspect cable connections and plugs for damage or corrosion, but ultimately, consulting a qualified technician is recommended to diagnose and resolve the issue effectively.

I once had similar symptoms with my Camry, although I don't recall the exact year model. The check engine light and coolant issues are concerning. Have you checked the cable connections to the component? I'd suggest inspecting the plugs and wiring for any damage or corrosion first.

Thanks for the quick reply! Where exactly should I be looking for these cable connections and plugs? Any specific area of the engine bay or near the cooling system?

Given the symptoms you have described, I would advise against further self-diagnosis and recommend consulting a qualified technician. It sounds like a potential connectivity issue with the control unit, which can lead to overheating and coolant leaks. If the problem stems from defective cable or plug connection, the repair cost should be around 95€. For me, going to the workshop was the best choice.
