Remove the fuse with the pullout
tool.
Only some fuses can be removed
using the pullout tool.
Check if the fuse is blown.
Normal fuse
Blown fuse
Replace the blown fuse with a new
fuse of an appropriate amperage rat-
ing. The amperage rating can be
found on the fuse box lid.
Many types of fuse are used on this
vehicle. This illustration shows a com-
mon type of fuse used on this vehicle.
■ After a fuse is replaced
● If the lights do not turn on even after the fuse has been replaced, a bulb may need
replacement. (P. 610)
● If the replaced fuse blows again, have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
■ If there is an overload in a circuit
The fuses are designed to blow, protecting the wiring harness from damage.
■ When replacing light bulbs
Lexus recommends that you use genuine Lexus products designed for this vehicle.
Because certain bulbs are connected to circuits designed to prevent overload, nongenu-
ine parts or parts not designed for this vehicle may be unusable.

Never replace a fuse with a wire, even as a temporary fix.
