'07Camry hybrid_U (L/O 0610) Checking the fusible link Type A fuses can be pulled out by the pull −out tool. The location of the pull −out tool is shown in the illustration. If you are not sure whether the fuse has blown, try replacing the suspected fuse with one that you know is good. If the fuse has blown, push a new fuse into the clip. Only install a fuse with the amperage rating designated on the fuse box lid. If you do not have a spare fuse, in an emergency you can pull out the "RADIO NO.1" or "PWR OUTLET" fuse, which may be dispensable for normal driving, and use it if its amperage rating is the same. If you cannot use one of the same amperage, use one that is lower, but as close to the rating as possible. If the amperage is lower than that specified, the fuse might blow out again but this does not indicate anything wrong. Be sure to get the correct fuse as soon as possible and return the substitute to its original clip. It is a good idea to purchase a set of spare fuses and keep them in your vehicle for emergencies. If the new fuse immediately blows out, there is a problem with the electrical system. Have your Toyota dealer correct it as soon as possible. CAUTION Never use a fuse with a higher amperage rating, or any other object, in place of a fuse. This may cause extensive damage and possibly a fire. If the headlights or other electrical components do not work and the fuses are O.K., check the fusible link fitted on the "+" terminal of the 12 volt battery. If the link is melted, it must be replaced. If there is an overload in the circuits, the fusible links are designed to melt before the entire wiring harness is damaged. The battery is located in the right −hand side of the trunk. See "-12 volt battery location" on page 369 in this Section. 372 2007 CAMRY HV from Oct. '06 Prod. (OM33749U)
