Default Help! Trunk light replacement caused a bunch of stuff to stop working!

Hey folks,

HELP!

I tried to replace the trunk light in a 2004 ES330, and used a festoon LED that was a bit too big. Like an idiot I kept pushing, and the light stopped working.

I figure I blew a fuse or something, and figured I would take care of it later. But, now upon using it today, a whole bunch of things don't work, like the garage opener, trunk release and some other things which I can list if needed.

What do I do? How many functions is the trunk light fuse associated with, and where is that one/multiple ones located?

Thanks!

did you change the fuse? 2 locations, under the hood, drivers side. on the interior, drivers side, left of the steering wheel, the little change box or what ever it is, pull that out, carefully, the fuses are behind that. do a google search, I'm sure it will more clear, if you have a manual, page 364, 365, 366, 367,368, 369, 370. also 373, and 374. hope this helps

Right but which fuse is it that I should change? Or should I pull each one out and check? I don't have the manual unfortunately.

Do a google search and see what you come up with, I guess start pulling fuses and see what blown. hope this helps, hope its a easy fix.
