Hi,
I have Lexus is350 06 I recently replaced the battery but by mistake I did it the wrong way at the first time so now there is a light on the dashboard but the car won't start at all !! I have replaced the starter fuse but still doesn't start what my next step should be ??? Need help ASAP please

 

Sadly I did the same thing my battery had no marking on it that showed positive and negative and because of that i put in it backwards. Turns out what actually burned out was the MAIN FUSE (i think) its the fuse box right next to/or behind (next to the fire wall) the battery... its a very long sliver (shiny) colored fuse. I think its designed to blow so you don't fry the computer which I thought i did and almost had a heart attacked.

Rookie mistake. I found a junk yard where they had a crash IS350 and brought the fuse box from it and installed it. Very tricky to take it apart lots of wires connected to it.

 

^Yep! It's called the fusible link.

 

Thank you for the info , Do you know by any chance how much they will charge in the dealer ship or just to purchase the part from auto zone ??
I don't have junk yard close to me .

 

AutoZone probably won't be able to help you AND the dealership MIGHT make you purchase the entire fuse box. You're best bet is purchasing the entire box online (ebay?).

 

@ Gville350 Thanks for giving us the name of it.


Yea your best bet if your trying to save money is eBay. If not try the dealership.
