02 LS dome lights & multi-info display on dash not working
Fuse # 25(10 AMP) for the dome on the passenger side box was blown,but when i went to replace with another 10 amp fuse it sparKed and immediately blew again. I made sure everything was off etc., and tried again, and same thing.....so obvious short. Any thoughts on where to look or start or what to do to find what is causing the fuses to blow??? Taking a 3 day trip out of town and it would be nice to have the mileage display on the dash, as well as the dome lights working. HELP APPRECIATED OR ANY TIPS!!! I am a newbie and new Lexus owner and excited to learn more these cars........Thanks

I had this when I put in LED courtesy lights. One was 'bad' so every time my son turned on his light - pop - fuse goes out with clock/multi display etc.
Maybe pop the dome lights and bulbs in back seat....?

Did some poking around. It turns out it is a short in the sun visor (driver side). It creates a short when moving it around. My SOH uses it a lot.The wiring must have been worn/frayed.
Edit: there is a power connector at the base of the visor. I just unplugged it. Problem solved.

Just FYI for anyone searching for a solution.
