    I recently wired in some new tow mirrors that have a puddle light on them. I use the heated mirror button to turn on and off the puddle lights since I don’t use the heated mirrors as I live in Florida. This was working for a couple months until I tried to go into the driver side mirror and rewire the blinker to also come on with the DRL. I only messed with the wiring on the driver side and I wasn’t successful on this so I put everything back together how it was, the heated mirror/puddle lights are no longer working on the new mirrors. I’ve already checked the heated mirror relay and swapped it with a different relay but this did not fix the issue. I think it’s a fuse because the heated mirrors went out on both sides at the same time, and I never messed with the passenger side. I can’t find the heated mirror fuse at all in either of the fuse diagrams. Does anyone know where the fuse is?

    Also this is a 2017 TRD Sport Tacoma

    Screenshot_20230914_100609~2.jpg There is a legend on the cover of the fuses...:burp:
    But the fuse is located in the engine bay fuse/relay box. Above the DRL fuse.

    Yep that’s it and it fixed the issue. Fuse was blown. I was primarily looking at the interior fuse box. I thought it would be in there. I took a quick look at the one in the engine bay, but I must have missed it. Thanks a ton!

    So OP, you were using the mirror heater button to get the puddles to turn on? I ask because that circuit is tied into the A/C amplifier.
