If you have ever wondered how to change a fuse in a Toyota Camry and where is the under the hood fuse box you are probably not alone. I was recently looking to change the horn relay and needed to
find the fuse and relay box in my Camry so I took some pictures of the Fuse box and diagram if others needed help finding it. The pictures are from a 2012 Toyota Camry 4 cylinder 2.5 liter engine but
the diagram and fuse box location is probably similar for all the 7th generation Camry's. There is also an internal fuse box located under the steering column on the driver side. The fuse panel is
also where most of your electrical relay's such as the A/C Relay, Heater Relay, Fan Relay, Horn Relay, Headlight Relay, Ignition Relay and Fog Light Relay is located. Finding a blown fuse yourself can
save you money by not having to take it to the dealer.
Replacement Fuses
If you have a 6th generation Camry 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 L, LE, XLE, SE, XLE V6, SE V6, and Hybrid you will need to check your owners manual for the specific fuse diagram for your vehicle.

| If the blown fuse you are looking for is not located in the fuse box in the engine compartment there is also an inside fuse box in the Toyota Camry located under the
steering column near the hood release lever. If something electrical is not working in your car you should always check to see if there is a burnt out fuse before you begin replacing parts. There
are fuses for every electrical component in your vehicle, including a headlight fuse, gauges fuse, tail light fuse, windshield wipers and washer fuse, cigarette lighter fuse, power outlet fuse,
power door locks fuse, power windows, rear defrost fuse, stop light fuse and power mirror fuse. Any of these fuses could burn out and should be checked before you spend money on taking your Camry
in for service. It is easy to check if you have a burnt out fuse, you just need to pull the fuse and hold it up to the light. Fuses are see through so you can tell when you have a bad fuse by looking
to see if there is a break in the metal connection running through the fuse. |
