There are no screws in the dome light cover of a 1997 Toyota Camry. You can pry the cover off with a flat bladed screw driver.
just yank on it!
I have the same problem with my 1999 Toyota Camry. The service person at the dealer said sometimes the connections in the unit go bad and it would need to be replaced. Cost = about $90.
This forum has some answers about the 98 Camry which may be similar. http://www.automotivehelper.com/topic155975.htm
The most likely reason is a burned-out bulb.
It's behind the coin compartment to left and of the steering wheel.
There is a small slot on the hard plastic cover near the end of the dome light you will need a small flat head screw driver insert the screw driver in that slot use a back and forth motion to remove it.
it should be the same as the interior light fuse. all of these are together i think.
See the 7.5 fuse in location 15 on the fuse box
To change the dome light on a 1994 Toyota Camry, first, ensure the vehicle is off and remove any light covers by gently prying them off with a flathead screwdriver or your fingers. Next, carefully take out the old bulb by twisting or pulling it out of the socket. Replace it with a new bulb, ensuring it fits securely, and then reattach the light cover. Finally, test the light to ensure it’s working properly.
need location of fuse for dome and radio.
Pry the lens off with a small flat screwdriver
