Help, disordered fuse boxes (both).

I have a 2008 Yaris sedan, and my brother took it for a few days. I don’t know what was he thinking by going to the fuse boxes and try to mess with it. Now the stereo, cigarette outlet and the license plate light don’t work also the car shakes and I don’t feel its normal anymore.
So I decided to check the fuse boxes and make sure they are in the right order
My question is should I just follow the fuse boxes diagram or what?
Thank you in advance.
Ps: there is no trustable electrician nearby also I prefer to do it by myself.

Just follow the diagrams on the covers to put them back correctly. Look at each, as if he put smaller rating ones where larger ones should be they will likely have blown.

Yes. depending on options and such. May have a few "spare" fuses as well. The best way to check fuses is with a test light to see if they are blown. I would get them all in the right spot, then turn the key and lights on, then check all fuses.

Make sure to smack your Brother to fix the root cause of the problem Family.... gotta love 'em.

not sure a smack is enough, a bullet might be the correct response for something like that. Totally insane.
