
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. 448)

If the replaced fuse blows again, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized
Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

If there is an overload in a circuit
The fuses are designed to blow, protecting the wiring harness from damage.

When replacing light bulbs
Lexus recommends that you use genuine Lexus products designed for this vehi-
cle. Because certain bulbs are connected to circuits designed to prevent overload,
non-genuine parts or parts not designed for this vehicle may be unusable.
CAUTION

To prevent system breakdowns and vehicle fire
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 Lexus fuse or equivalent.
Never replace a fuse with a wire, even as a temporary fix.

Do not modify the fuses or fuse boxes.
NOTICE

Before replacing fuses
Have the cause of electrical overload determined and repaired by any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional as soon as possible.
