Gen 4 Fuse Location

Recommended Posts

I noticed the LED bulb I put in my rear dome light was flickering tonight and when I took the cover off I noticed it wasn't seated properly.  I had to fiddle a bit with the bulb when I first fitted due to it being a little bit too long.  I fitted it back in then realised some of the LEDs were not working so I went to put in the original bulb but it took a bit of an effort to fit as the holder was now a bit loose and in the process I have blown the fuse.

Looking in the manual they show 3 locations for fuses, but helpfully don't say which ones are located where or their physical size or load.

Does anyone know which location I need to be looking at and what type of fuse they are?  

Thanks

Funny enough I changed my rear dome light in my gen 4 recently and managed to blow the fuse in the process. I can confirm in the RHD style the fuse box for the dome is located on the passenger side with a small section of trim in the foot-well underneath the glove box that needs to be removed.

You should then see a small fuse box on the left with a small removable door. The dome fuse is the 3rd one down on the LHS and rated at 7.5A.

The style is a flush fit mini blade fuse although the normal mini blade fuses do fit but the door can't be replaced.

I've attached a quick photo for comparison as I still had them to hand along with the front cover of the passenger fuse box door which lists the fuses ratings and locations.

Many thanks for the detailed reply and photos. 

I thought I was going to have to hire a contortionist to get access to them :biggrin:

I have never seen such a tiny fuse before and have just ordered one. I may have one of the other type somewhere which I could use temporarily. 

Msny thanks again!

I found this super helpful when trying to explain what fuse I needed!

Thank you very much.  I'm amazed there are fuses even smaller than the ones in the Prius!
