I've been searching high and low all day including searching this forum and many others. I just can't find the fuse box that houses the fuses for the climate control and the cigarette lighter. I looked all under the sterring wheel and it was nowhere to be found. I'm probably missing something really obvious but can someone please post a pic of where it is so I can know?

 

Did you check the fuse box in the engine compartment?

 

yeah I looked in there but I didn't see a fuse for the lighter. Is that where it is and I just missed it? if so I'm sorry for being such a complete moron.

 

Drivers side kick panel, Fuse #10 "CIG" 15 Amp.

 

my main problem is finding the kick panel. so far 3 people I know have searched and couldn't find the kick panel. Can I get a picture of it's location so I can just go from there? I know this is the dumbest question that could be asked but I have no idea where it is

 

Should on the left of the pedals if looking under there. Theres a bunch of small fuses.

 

It's a black box that says FUSE BOX embossed on it. It's where your left foot goes. Just look a little higher up and to the side. It's facing to the right.

 

I looked up there and I didn't see it. I called Lexus Of Louisville and they said there were three places it could be. The drivers side by the clutch, the passengers side or the trunk. any ideas on where it would be in the trunk? I've searched the other two with no result. pictures would be amazing. I'm so sorry for being such an idiot but I can't find this thing and I feel pathetic

 

You have to really drill your head down to the pedals to find it. It's in the corner all the way up to the left on the drivers side. It may be hiding just a little bit because of the carpet. You can pull the carpet slightly to reveal it a little more.

 

Also, if that fuse doenst work, there is a fuse in the bottom on the cigarette lighter itself. If the fuse at the kick pannel doesnt work, you need to replace it.

Also you might want to pull the carpet back if you cant see it.

 

okay yeah I see it now. It doesn't have the cover over it anymore so I couldn't tell what it was. it's covered in carpet and wires...it honestly seems like the the worst place imaginable to put something that would have to be changed.

 

These should help you out some...took these before not the greatest but they'll do.

Here's the location




The CIG fuse is in the 2nd row of blade fuses from the top and 2nd in from the right, blue 15amp.



Here's what it looks like with the cover off but carpet intact.

 

Excellent pictures, helped me immensely just now!

 

Good job taking time out to take shots.

 

So is the fuse inside the lighter hole a 15 also?
