Try changing out your ECT or Engine Coolant Temp sensor. Inexpensive part and easy to change. If that doesn't fix it, my next part would be the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS). If the check engine light is on, I would have the error codes scanned. Try your nearest Autozone. Post back with results...thanks.

I have a 2012 Camry SE. It has sat awhile and the battery had died when I tried to start the car. I charged the battery and now rests at 12.5v. Now when I go to start the car there is no power at all to the inside of the car. No gauge lights come on when you turn the key, but the steering wheel can be turned and the car cannot be shifted into neutral. I checked all fuses, including the long ones that house the alternator, all check out fine. I used my dmm and I have power to alternator and starter. Security light is on inside the car. I have tried all three keys I have for the car with no avail. 3 Answers

battery is fully charged now, all connections are tight and clean. (car only has 9950 miles on it). Power to alternator, starter. All fuses good, no power to inside of vehicle and nothing on besides...
