Oh, ok.
Thank you for your quick response though.
Well, what I am looking for according to the service manual, appears to be the T-PL relay.
I will keep on looking

OK - The T-LP relay is located within the body ECU, so theoretically the only way to replace it is to replace the entire body ECU assembly, which is that whole under-dash fuse panel piece.

Ouch! This sucks.

The good thing is that looked further into the technical manual, and T-LP doesn't fit 100% the symptoms of my problem.

Could you please have a look into my problem?
Hopefully it might be something simple for someone with your experience.

Also when I turn the lights stick to the first position, not even the dashboard's lights dim down as it always did.

I believe this narrows down my problem to either issue with the stick itself, relay/fuse, or the wiring between the 2.

Thank you

You can do an easy test to see if it is the relay or the headlight switch. The picture below is of a US Yaris headlight switch connector, but your looks the same, with possibly some wires in different positions.

To test the relay with bypassing the switch, using a paper clip or piece of wire, jump the position 10 and position 13 wires. In the picture below that would be the bottom left wire and the wire 3 positions to the right of it.
