license plate/ parking lights/ tail lights off

[jonhy_ sm]

hey guys,
I have a yaris 1.0 2007 and this is the problem:
some days ago, I was checking my parking lights and suddenly they went off.
After that , I checked that the license plate light, and the tail light were off either.
-Is the fuse for this 3 items the same fuse?
-Do you think it's a fuse problem?
-where is/are this/these fuse/fuses in the box?

regards.

They all run off of the 10A TAIL fuse, which is located in the under dash fuse panel.

regards

The *1 is TAIL. Here is the legend that goes along with that drawing. Also, the cover of the fuse panel has the fuse names listed on it. The fuse box is located under the driver's side of the dash, and is literally under the bottom of the dash. So, you look up from the floor to see it.


* 1:10A TAIL (H/B, S/D *3)
7.5A PANEL 2 (*4)
* 2:10A TAIL (*4)
* 3:Cold Area Spec., w/ Engine Immobiliser
System, w/ ABS, w/ Rear Window Defogger,
w/ Door Lock Control,
w/ Daytime Running Light,
w/ Remote Control Mirror,
w/ Air Conditioning
* 4:Except H/B, S/D *3

I have the exact same issue, checked fuses on both Fuse boxes. I replaced all the globes but the issue still persists. I have a 2007 t3+ Yaris. Any suggestions

Is your t3 a French built Yaris, and if so, does it have daytime running lights and is it right or left hand drive?

[Amien Abdullah]

Not a french build, its a right hand drive and it dies have daytime running but no longer dims when the lights are turned on. Clocks are digital and no longer get a warning tone when the lights are on and the door is open. Front park lights no longer work in front.

[Amien Abdullah]

Just to add , there's no dash lights as well

[CTScott]

Is it labeled as a Yaris or a Vitz? Can you shoot me the VIN or Frame number of it?

If it is wired the way I think it is, check the 7.5A PANEL1 and PANEL2 fuses in the under dash fuse panel. Also check the 7.5A MET fuse there.

I know you said you already checked fuses, but how did you do so (visual inspection, measured voltage on both sides of the fuse, removed fuse and checked continuity)?

Also, people often mention checking "all" fuses, but in fact do not check the specific ones referenced, because they look in the incorrect place and don't verify the fuse by the labeling on the fuse box cover.

Its labeled Yaris I will send you send you the VIN number shortly.

I visually checked the fuses by pulling them out and checked if the weren't
blown or damaged, do you recommend changing them?

I would swap the ones I mentioned just to be safe. Sometimes the smaller rating fuses are hard to see that they have blown.

Ok cool I will do so, I was reading on a separate thread, the one where you posted a video on the headlight stork, funny enough about 3 weeks back I noticed that my clock's back light never dimmed as it should and when i fiddled with the switch by turning the lights on and off it finally dimmed out, i'm relating the issue being the switch that finally gave in, do you agree?

[Amien Abdullah]

I will try and clean the brass connectors as soon as I get home as instructed on the thread and hopefully I succeed.

If fiddling with the switch made it eventually dim, then I would agree that it is most likely a bad headlight switch.

Hi Scott thanks for the help. I cleaned out the brass connectors and lights and all issues were resolved. Cheers and thanks again
