2 Blown fuse

Replace the blown fuse with a new fuse of an appropriate amperage rating.

The amperage rating can be found on the fuse box lid.

■After a fuse is replaced

●If the lights do not turn on even after the fuse has been replaced, a bulb may need replacement.
●If the replaced fuse blows again, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer.

■If there is an overload in a circuit

The fuses are designed to blow, protecting the wiring harness from damage.

CAUTION ■To prevent system breakdowns and vehicle fire

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may cause damage to the vehicle, and possibly a fire or injury.

●Never use a fuse of a higher amperage rating than that indicated, or use any other object in place of a fuse. ●Always use a genuine Toyota fuse or equivalent. Never replace a fuse with a wire, even as a temporary fix.

●Do not modify the fuses or fuse boxes.

NOTICE ■Before replacing fuses

Have the cause of electrical overload determined and repaired by your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.
