how to check and replace fuses in my Toyota Camry Seventh Generation (2012-2017)?

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools: fuse puller, multimeter, replacement fuses.
• Ensure the vehicle is turned off and parked on a flat surface.

2. Locate the Fuse Box

• Open the driver's side door and locate the fuse box cover under the dashboard on the left side.
• Remove the cover by pulling it off gently to expose the fuses.

3. Inspect the Fuses

• Using the fuse puller, remove the suspected blown fuses by grasping them firmly and pulling them out of their sockets.
• Visually check for a broken filament or discoloration in the fuse. If damaged, it must be replaced.

4. Test the Fuses

• Set the multimeter to the continuity setting or low resistance setting.
• Touch one probe to each end of the fuse. A good fuse will show continuity (a beep or a low resistance reading). A blown fuse will show no continuity.

5. Replace the Blown Fuses

• Insert a new fuse of the same amperage rating into the socket where the blown fuse was located. Ensure it fits snugly.
• Repeat this process for any other blown fuses.

6. Reassemble

• Once all necessary fuses are replaced, reattach the fuse box cover.
• Ensure all components are reassembled correctly and securely.
