Problems with the window heating in the Toyota Camry 2012: experiences and suggested solutions

Hey guys, my 2012 Toyota Camry gasoline engine is currently causing some problems. My window heater has stopped working and an error has been saved. I think the limited function of the windshield heater might be responsible for this problem. Have you had similar experiences and can you give any troubleshooting tips? I am particularly interested in how your garage solved the problem and what experience you have had. Many thanks in advance.

A 2012 Toyota Camry owner is experiencing issues with the window heater, suspecting the limited function of the windshield heater as a potential cause. A similar problem in a 2010 Toyota Corolla was resolved by fixing faulty heater wires. Suggested solutions include reading the fault memory for error codes, obtaining multiple repair estimates, and consulting different mechanics to determine the best course of action.

Hi, I had a similar problem with my 2010 Toyota Corolla Diesel, I only have some experience with cars. My mechanic explained to me that the heater wires were faulty, just like in your car. It cost me 585.0 euros, but everything worked again afterwards. Have you already had the fault memory read out? What error code did you get? I might be able to help with a few more details. Good luck!

Hey, thanks for your help! Yes, I've had the fault memory read out, but unfortunately I can't give you the exact fault code right now. By the way, my last inspection was at 293407 KM, if that helps you in any way. Is your heater still working without any problems? I hope I don't have to pay too much for the repair.

No problem, you don't necessarily have to have the error code. At my last inspection, I was at about the same number of kilometers as you. And yes, my heater is still running perfectly. I hope it stays that way with the expensive repairs! It's hard to say how much it will cost you, but I would definitely get an estimate before you place the order. It might also not be a bad idea to consult another mech anchor and see what they say about the cost. Good luck and I hope you can solve the problem quickly.

Hi, thanks again for the useful tips and your support! Yes, that's a really good idea to get different estimates and see which mechanic can best solve the problem. I hope the repair costs won't be too high! It's good to hear that your heater is still working, that gives me hope that mine can be fixed too. You have helped me a lot. Thank you very much and I will be in touch if I need any more information. Thank you and I hope you continue to have no problems with your car!
