●If  the  replaced  fuse  blows  again,  have  the  vehicle  inspected  by  your
To y o t a   d e a l e r .
■If there is an overload in a circuit
The fuses are designed to blow, protecting the wiring harness from damage.

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.
■Fuse box near the power control unit
Never check or replace the fuses as there are high voltage parts and wiring
near the fuse box.
