Default 2003 Lexus Ls-430 Fuse #25 (headlight leveling" issue

This is the cheap fix.
While I wait for a auto leveling module to come in I would like to do what was described as a cheap & fast fix so that can stop the buzzer alarm telling I'm having "headlight leveling" issues.

My question is:
Where is this fuse #25?

I have looked on the passenger side fuse box and have not seen any fuse labeled #25

Thanks in advance
Bob

Check your owners manual - it should have a full listing of all the fuse locations in the car. These cars are full of fuses and fusible links. They are all scattered around the car in different locations for a total of 85 (2003 anyways).

Some under the hood on both sides of the car. There is a set of fuses under a small panel on the driver's side. Another set under a small panel on the passenger's side and yet another in the trunk near the spare tire.

On my 2003 LS430 fuse #25 is under a small kick panel on the passenger side in the area of the front seat. Look down low.

Good luck! It's a lot easier with the fuse diagram to find the one you are looking for.

Although this may not be your problem. I started getting a "headlight levelling" warning message when I had a dying battery. It was leaking acid and causing corrosion on the positive terminal.

When the corrosion got too excessive it would throw this message and other ones for wheel speed sensors. Oh and my sunroof would open and close on its own as well. I started getting suspicious when all these alarms were going off at the same time.

Replaced the battery and positive terminal and all alarms went away and have stayed off for good.

These cars seem to go squirrely when the voltage isn't good. Anyhoo something quick to check before replacing any expensive parts!

The 7.5A fuse is labeled "H-LP LVL". You can find is in the passenger kick panel J/B, the middle row, second from the top.
