If you hear a buzzing sound when you attempt to start your vehicle, such as the Toyota Camry, the problem is likely related to your battery. There are several potential reasons for battery failure, including having an old battery that can no longer hold a charge, a faulty alternator, or a component that is draining power while your Camry is turned off. Start by checking the battery's voltage with a digital multimeter to determine the next steps - you don't want to spend money on a new battery if the current one is still functional. Identify any components that may be drawing power, such as a light that remains on when it shouldn't. By replacing these components, your car should be up and running smoothly again.

    Certainly! In 2009, my spouse drove our Toyota Camry with a 3.5-liter engine back home to pick me up. When she arrived, we entered the car about ten minutes later, but it wouldn't start. Although the lights and power windows were functioning, there was a buzzing noise, and the engine wouldn't start.
