Scion 90982-09020 Fuse, Mini

The electrical circuits of the vehicle are protected by fuses and circuit breakers and fusible links, The fuse blocks are located at two places, one under the instrument panel and second in the engine compartment where the engine compartment fuse and relay box is located on the left side. On the under side of the cover there is a label which reads 'fusible link area' where there are cartridge-style fusible links and another fuse box is located inside the car at the left extremity of the dash behind a modest door marked 'fuse'. The fuse is designed for guarding a particular circuit, labeled on the cover of the fuse panel; miniaturized fuses with blades terminals allow quick swapping. When an electrical component ceases to function, it is imperative that the fuse be checked most times, using a test light to determine whether there is power at the exposed end of the fuse terminal; if the light turns on on one side but not the other, the fuse is blown; this is also further proved by visible examination as the element which joins the two terminals burns out. Blown fuses must be replaced by exact fuses, fuses that may look like the correct one, must not be used because each may provide the proper protection as stated by the amperage value molded in the fuse body. If the replacement fuse causes the circuit again to 'trip' upon switch on, then the faulty fuse should not be replaced back until the problem causing the initial tripping is usually a short circuit resulting from a poor connection or a faulty wire. Moreover, some circuits contain fusible links and are used in the circuits not generally fused, for example, high current side of charging or starting circuits. Inline fusible links are easy to distinguish by a thicker part in the cable; they are used, for instance, in the starter cable There are new cartridge types of fusible links that look like large fusinate cartridges and are located in the fuse and relay box within the engine compartment. To replace a fusible link, you want to pull the clamp off of the negative terminal of the battery, take the bad fusible link out and put in a new one of the same amps.

Circuits of the automobile are protected with the help of fuses, circuit breakers, as well as fusible links and the main fuse/relay box is positioned in the engine compartment while the interior fuse/relay position is on the driver side of the instrument panel. Small, medium and large fuses of the same blade terminal are employed in the fuse blocks; once it is necessary to remove the fuses, the small fuses can turn to the pliers as well as the plastic fuse puller while the medium and large ones can be removed by hand. For an electrical component failure, always ensure that you check the fuse, applying the use of a test light on the terminal tips to ensure there is power, and a fuse can also be observed for its burned element. Blown fuses should be replaced by the correct type as physically, fuses may be interchangeable but should have the rated current to protect respective circuits. If a replaced fuse poses to fail at once, then the real problem, which may be a short circuit from spoilt wires must be dealt with. Also, some of the circuits are protected by fusible links that are applied in circuits of high current and are actually made of a material that melts when too much current passes through it; when replacing a given fusible link that has blown, then the right one must be placed in its place and if a new one burns then the circuit must be checked.

The circuits of the vehicle are protected by way of fuses, the circuit breakers and the fusible links. The fuse and relay compartment for the engine is on the driver side, beneath the bonnet just below the battery in which at the bottom of the cover casing you have a guide. This could be located at the left side of the instrument panel at the far end of it, specifically after removing the coin tray which also doubles as the fuse and relay locator. Every single fuse is designed for a particular circuit; these are circuits that can be easily recognized on the fuse panel. Fuses with the blade terminal design are miniaturized and can be easily removed and replaced; to confirm if a fuse is blown, use a test light to check for power on the terminal tips of the fuse; this is easily evident. It is always recommended to replace blown fuses with the same amperage fuses, because substitute fuses of another rating may harm the circuit protection. If the same replacement fuse blows soon after, then the problem, a short circuit usually resulting from damaged wiring, needs to be fixed. Some circuits incorporate the use of fusible links specifically in areas that do not have common fuses, usually the ignition circuit. These links, frequently thick wire, melt through when current surpasses the design limit: one has to cut out the link and solder on a new one. Some fusible links look like giant fuses, of sorts, and after having pulled the negative cable on the battery, the ruined link can be swapped for a new one of comparable amps.

Fusible links are used in circuits that are not ordinarily fused or that carry high current.

Yes, additional fuses may be present in smaller boxes near the radiator or in the relay box at the right fender area for certain models like the Solara and Avalon.

Always check the fuse first. The best way to check the fuses is with a test light to check for power at the exposed terminal tips of each fuse.

A wire-type fusible link, installed in the harness between the battery and the fuse/relay blocks, protects the entire chassis electrical system and is located near the positive battery terminal.

The main fuses are located in the fusebox, behind a panel in the driver's storage tray. Additional fuses are located in a second fusebox in the engine compartment, next to the battery.
