There are a few things that can cause the P0420 code to be set, including:
* A faulty oxygen sensor
* A clogged catalytic converter
* Damaged exhaust components (leaks, cracks, etc.)
If you see the P0420 code on your 1999 Toyota Camry, it's important to have the problem diagnosed and repaired as soon as possible to avoid further damage to your vehicle's emissions system.
