Fuse Check and Replacement

Model: Toyota Avensis MK 1, T220 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Checks and maintenance

Inside the engine compartment, at the front left corner, just behind the headlamp, is the fuse box: by removing the protective cover (press on the fastening tab to unclip it), you can access the panel where the fuses are attached (their function is to protect various devices); below the cover is a diagram illustrating the correspondence between the fuse position and the element under protection. To check the integrity of the fuses, there are several methods: the simplest is to pull the fuse from its socket using tweezers and check the integrity of the internal filament; if the filament is broken, replace the fuse with one of the same amperage.
