1999 Toyota Corolla Repair Question


Topics covered: Fuse, Panel, Fuse box.
Mileage: 230,000 miles.

Asked on October 16, 2011

Fuse issue? Where is fuse for all this stuff actually located?

Dash lighting, cigarette lighter, license plate lighting, tail lights all of a sudden no longer work, but where is fuse for all that located? Had one light on dash lighting go out years ago and have been fine without it. Have a Haynes repair manual which doesn't seem to help much with this problem.

It is located behind the left side of dash at lower finish panel. I attached a schematic. Please note, the power to this fuse box comes from a main fuse box under the hood.

Thank you, I had already found that after asking the question. Saw all the fuses and not sure which one is causing my problem, will disconnect battery and start pulling them tomorrow.

Check the bottom section of the schematic. If I recall, all the things you mentioned are listed on the circuit all the way to the right.
