Toyota Corolla Verso AR10 was produced in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009. It was supplied all over the world, so you can find both right-hand drive and left-hand drive models. In this publication you can find information describing the location of electronic control units, the purpose of all fuses and relays of the Toyota Corolla Verso with block diagrams and photo examples of their execution. Let's highlight the cigarette lighter fuse.

The location of the blocks and the purpose of the elements in them may differ from that presented and depend on the year of manufacture, level of equipment and region of delivery.

Element location

In order to begin the replacement, you need to find where the fuse panel is located, among which there is the required part. On Toyota Corolla 120 and 150 models it is located to the left of the steering column, closer to the bottom. In fact, it is quite easy to find it, since the panel cover stands out purely visually by color. Behind it is located the fuse box for the interior electronics.

The cover of this panel contains a number of symbols that indicate the location of a specific part responsible for the operation of a particular electrical equipment. The cigarette lighter is designated by the code CIG (from the English cigarette). The current value for this device is 15 amperes, but the serial number may differ. It is also worth paying attention to the accompanying devices: clock, audio system, since often their malfunctions can be the cause of the problem in question.

It is worth noting that the cigarette lighter fuse on the Toyota Corolla in the block additionally differs in the color of the heads. The electrical components of the central panel are characterized by a blue tint. There are fewer such parts than, for example, red or white ones, so finding the right device will not be difficult.

Left-hand drive vehicles: Remove the upper instrument panel, then remove the lower instrument panel.

Right-hand drive vehicles: Open the glove box, remove the damper, lift the glove box to release the clips at the bottom, and remove it.

Replacing an electrical fuse on a Toyota Corolla: step-by-step instructions

So, having sorted out the tools and selected the electrical fuses we need in the store, let's proceed to the step-by-step replacement of the fuse on the Toyota Corolla. First of all, we need to know where the fuse panel is located in the car - finding it will not be very difficult.

As a rule, the panel is located on the driver's side under the steering column - finding it should not be difficult. However, before climbing down, you need to lay down a small rag so as not to get dirty. So, when the rag is laid, we begin to search for the fuse panel. We look under the steering column. There should be a small cabin fuse panel located closer to the left door. In the photo you can see how it looks in most Toyota Corolla cars.

When the panel is found, we position ourselves more comfortably, having first picked up the tweezers and the purchased electrical fuse. In front of us is the cover of the fuse console - on it we see various symbols. In the photo below you can see them in more detail.

As we can see, there are more than 30 values ​​written on the lid and they are all different. We will need the "CIG" value - this is usually 15 amps. On our panel it is located at number 23. So, we found the socket we needed on the lid. The next step is to open the box and look for the fuse we need using the diagram. Typically, you should look for a plastic head that is blue in color. In the photo the arrow indicates the fuse we need.

We opened the lid and found the fuse. What's next? Let's examine the object pulled out from the panel. The most important thing to pay attention to is the oxidation of contacts. If they are oxidized, then it is necessary to thoroughly clean the nest. Only after cleaning should you insert a new fuse, otherwise it may simply deteriorate and fail prematurely.

We clean the socket and insert a new fuse there, after which we do not rush to immediately close the lid. Let's check the work done. We crawl out from under the steering wheel. We check the functionality of our system. We turn on the cigarette lighter or charger and check its functionality. You can also check failed related devices - clock, radio, etc. If all systems are functioning normally, then the fuse was the problem and our job is complete. You can put the lid on the fuse box and enjoy troubleshooting problems inside your car.

However, if the problems have not been resolved, then it is best to contact an official service or an electrician who can check your wiring, diagnose the entire system and identify the true cause of the breakdown.

By the way, before buying a new fuse, you can check the cause with a regular 12-volt light bulb. Having soldered two wires to it, we insert them instead of the fuse. If the light bulb works, and all other systems work with it, then the problem is in the fuse. This concludes our repair of a non-working cigarette lighter in a Toyota Corolla.

Replacement procedure

The Toyota Corolla uses a 15 amp fuse. The fuse box in the Toyota Corolla is located under the driver's panel on the left foot side. The protective cover of the unit has a designation for each of them. You need to find a designation with the English letters CIG (for cigarette). It is first recommended to completely disconnect the car from power to avoid a short circuit. To do this, you need to remove the negative terminal from the battery.

The only tools you may need are tweezers to carefully remove the old fuse. How to replace the cigarette lighter fuse in a Toyota Corolla? Everything is very simple. Follow these steps:

1. Open the fuse box.
2. Remove the old 15 amp fuse.
3. Install a new one.
4. Check the functionality of the cigarette lighter.

Usually replacing this component completely solves the problem. If this option does not help you, the problem may lie in the wiring. It is also recommended to install only the required fuse rating. Using a part with a large ampere rating may in the future lead to damage to the cigarette lighter.

The entire replacement process actually takes only a couple of minutes, and your costs are reduced only to purchasing a new fuse. Now you don’t have to contact a specialized car service for such a trivial problem. You will save your time and money. The cigarette lighter is an integral element in every car, so if it breaks, be sure to repair it.
