 Description of the problemNot sure if this issue has been addressed, but i thought i would report my near miss. Yesterday i did transmission flush on my 2009 camry. After completing the trasmission service, i had my wife start the car, so i could check the fluid level (per owners manual); my 17 month old baby boy was also was in the car. I removed the transmission dipstick and cleaned it off. As i reinserted the dipstick there was an array of sparkes coming from the dipstick. I removed the dipstick and inspected what had occurred. It appears during the process the positive terminal on my battery got slightly exposed and when i reinserted the dipstick it touched the positive terminal of my battery and was grounded by the dipstick tube. The dipstick sustained electrical damage to the areas where it contacted the battery and dipstick tube. Luckily nothing caught fire during this incident, for my family was in the vehicle and the car was parked in my garage. I'm just passing my experience along. Thank you,
