■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. 298)
● If the replaced fuse blows again, have the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■ If there is an overload in a circuit
The fuses are designed to blow, protecting the wiring harness from damage.
■ When replacing light bulbs
Toyota recommends that you use genuine Toyota products designed for this
vehicle. Because certain bulbs are connected to circuits designed to prevent
overload, non-genuine parts or parts not designed for this vehicle may be
unusable.
■ When reinstalling the cover (type C fuse box)
