    Alright so today i noticed that my 17 Tacoma’s driver side low beam Led light wasn’t workin, tonight when i got home i pulled the fuses out for the left and right headlight. The left one was blew, so i put another in and it blew too then blew a 15 amp that was across from it and now my Low beams do not work at all any ideas of where to start at?

    OP, if you look carefully, the only way to have juice to the lights is by the relay staying closed, which is handled by the Main Body ECU by way of the steering stalk ground. SO my guesstimate is you have a stuck relay and something a miss with the connector to the lamps and/or the wiring to the lamps too.

    Put the stock bulbs back in and see if the fuse blows or not. What brand LED bulbs are you using?
