I tried installing the illuminated F sport door sills on my 22 Lexus is350. I install the passenger side with no issue and the door sill lights up, but when I installed the driver side it completely went dark and all my interior led doesn't light up (Dome light, door puddle lights, back seat dome, door sill). I did not get any warning light on my dash so I was wonder if anyone could assist me here. I am thinking i might have blew the fuse? If so, which one should i replace and what type of fuse i should buy would greatly appreciated.

I don’t think this will be much help but if I had to guess it’s probably a fuse as well. Someone like @Sasnuke with the electrical diagrams of the car might be of better help to determine which fuse and where that fuse is located.

I went out and checked all my fuse lids. It’s definitely not in the engine bay. If I had to guess I’d say it’s this fuse which is under the dash on the drivers side.
I greatly appreciated for getting back to me. By any chance do you know what type of fuse do they use? low profile, mini, or regular?
Thank you again
I’m 99% sure it’s low profile but I truthfully wouldn’t be 100% sure. Once you take it out check the fuse box on the drivers side of the engine bay. There are spare fuses in there if I recall correctly. If not they are in the passenger side engine bay fuse box
I want to say it does, since it is the same shape as the pre-refresh door sills. Maybe you can try it out in service to the community?
As you can see below, it appears to be the very same size and shape as the prior units. It'd just be a question as to what's underneath working with the new door sills - knowing Lexus, I would say yes, it most likely works.
Is it worth getting the illuminated ones dealer installed? I have sill plates but they aren’t illuminated. I’m not very handy and I usually screw up somewhere along the way with instructions. Just wondering if I can trust the dealer to put the car back together without issue.

I'm not super handy either, and I'd probably either have a dealer install it or someone else who I know has experience with these kinds of installs.

It is an easy install however trying to access the wire harness might intimidate some, if you have a good mechanic ask them what they would charge to install it with your next service visit, some might not charge much if at all to install it for you.
