After a fuse is replaced
●
If the lights do not turn on even after the fuse has been replaced, a bulb may need
replacement. (
●
If the replaced fuse blows again, have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
■
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 vehicle.
Because certain bulbs are connected to circuits designed to prevent overload, non-gen-
uine parts or parts not designed for this vehicle may be unusable.
WARNING
■
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 your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.
