Interior LED lights

Does anyone know what fuse powers the interior lights? My LED 's went out , so I replaced them and still wont come on. I think I need to check the fuse. I checked the owners manual but no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Try flipping the bulbs 180 degrees.

 

If they were working and went out this will not be the issue. If they never worked then try this

 

fuse box has a label on the cover. Pic here, but I cant make out the details https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/dash-cam-hard-wire-question.443376/#post-12911807

 

Polarity?

 

Pretty sure the "DOME" fuse is under the hood rather than in the cabin. I think that's the one the dome/map lights are on.

Dash lights are on the "TAIL" circuit on the inside of the cab, and the instrument cluster is on the "GAUGE" fuse inside the cab.

definitely check polarity first, or even check the volts at the sockets with a multimeter if you really want to be sure.

 

I have no luck ,replaced with facory bulbs ,flipped no luck.

 

Thanks did not know there was 2 fuse boxes. This one looks like it is on the interior.

 

Thanks all ,will purse further and post findings. I found the interior light on last week wifey must have been looking for something.....

 

Well I checked the fuses and replaced bulbs. Still no lights. Also reversed bulbs , still no lights. Cargo light works,lol . Off to the dealer we go....

 

Well.... since no one else is going to... i'll ask the obvious. Did you verify that the switch on the overhead console is not in the 'OFF' position?

 

Yes I toggled the switch , also toggled the cargo light switch just for snits and giggles

 

So did you find out what was wrong? I was installing leds also in my interior and as soon as I took off the reading lamps I think I blew a fuse.

 

No I have not. I.decided to.wait for my next and first oil change get and let the dealer fix it.

Any advise would still.be appreciated.

 

Dude I put in 7.5, 10, and 15 and they all blew out. Is anyone else having the same problem?

 

My problem is my fuse is not blown. Or I am looking at the wrong fuse.

 

If you're blowing fuses, you have a short circuit. Figure that out before you kill any more fuses.

BTW, on fuse capacity -- Going up one step when you know you've increased a circuit's load is usually safe, but I'd never replace a 7.5 with a 15; that's enough that I'd be worrying about wire capacity. Having a wire harness catch fire is not fun. Been there done that.

 

I have a 30 on there now. But only the vanity and some lights are working. I think I have a short circuit where my reading lights are. How do you fix short circuits?

 

Find where the power is somehow leaking/contacting to ground and then remedy whatever caused it.

Usually this involved manually tracing the wires once you've eliminated anything you might have caused when you got into the panels.

Yes, short circuits suck to diagnose and fix.

 

Can someone post a picture where this fuse is? Thanks
