In this article, you will find information about the fuses of the Toyota Tacoma (N220/N240/N250/N260/N270) (models 2009, 2010, and 2011), including diagrams of the fuse boxes, a list of fuses, their designation, and the location of the fuse blocks within the vehicle.
Checking and Replacing Fuses in Toyota Tacoma
The fuses are designed to blow, protecting the wiring harness from damage. If any of the electrical components do not operate, a fuse may have blown. If this happens, check and replace the fuses as necessary. Replace the blown fuse with a new fuse of an appropriate amperage rating. The amperage rating can be found on the fuse box lid.
Caution!
- Never use a fuse of a higher amperage rating than that indicated, or use any other object in place of a fuse.
- Always use a genuine Toyota fuse or equivalent. Never replace a fuse with a wire, even as a temporary fix.
- Do not modify the fuses or fuse boxes.
Location of Fuse Boxes
Engine Compartment:
Push the tab in and lift the lid off.
Passenger Compartment:
- Open the auxiliary box.
- Pull up the box and disengage the claws. Remove the stoppers from the cutouts and remove the box.
