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. 610)
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, nongenu-
ine 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.
