Good
Blown
a. Look carefully at the fuse. If the thin wire is broken,
the fuse has blown. If you are not sure or if it is too dark
to see, try replacing the suspected fuse with one of the
same value that you know is good.
b. Only install a fuse with the amperage rating
designated on the fuse box lid.
If you do not have a spare fuse, in an emergency you can
pull out the ºRAD NO.1º, ºRAD NO.2º or ºPWR
OUTLETº fuse, which may be dispensable for normal
driving, and use it if its amperage rating is the same.
If you cannot use one of the same amperage, use one
lower than, but as close as possible to, the amperage.
If the amperage is lower than that specified, the fuse
might blow out again but this does not indicate anything
wrong. Be sure to get the correct fuse as soon as
possible and return the substitute to its original clips.It is a good idea to purchase a set of spare fuses and
keep them in your vehicle for emergencies.
If the new fuse immediately blows out, there is a problem
with the electrical system. Have your Lexus dealer
correct it as soon as possible.
