Make sure the engine and all accessories are turned

 When checking the battery, remove the ground cable
first and reinstall it last.

 Take care no solution gets into the battery when
washing it.

The moonroof may not operate automatically and the jam
protection function will not function correctly after you

cases, you should normalize the moonroof. To normalize the

CHECKING THE CARTRIDGE TYPEFUSES
Engine compartment
Driver’s side instrument panel
Good Blown
If the headlights or other electrical components do not
work and the blade type fuses are O.K., check the
cartridge type fu ses. If any of the cartridge type fuses are
blown, they must be replaced.
If there is an overload in the circuits from the battery, the fuses
are designed to blow before the entire wiring harness is
damaged.
CAUTION
Always use a genuine Lexus fuse or equivalent for
replacement. Never install an ordinary wire — even for
a temporary fix. This may cause extensive damage and
possibly a fire.
