The protection of electrical circuits of automobile utilizes fuses, circuit breakers and fusible links in which the fuse blocks are attached under the panel of instrument in two sides of the dashboard and in the engine section close to the battery and before the ABS actuator. Every fuse is assigned to a particular circuit this is written on the fuse box. Miniature fuses with a Blade Terminal structure allow removal and new installation with a simple movement with the fingertips. As a first troubleshooting step in the occurrence of electrical component failure, one should always check the fuse. Since the casing of a typical fuse is made of transparent plastic, it is relatively easy to check for the element's condition by simple visual assessment after a blown fuse. In this case, if the continuity test is needed, the tips of the blade terminal in the fuse body can be checked. All blown fuses should be replaced with like types as fuses of different capacities may look identical but should not be cross-connected; each circuit has the protection requirement that is specifically provided by the molded amperage value labeled on the fuse body. If a replacement fuse blows out as soon as it is installed, then it should not be replaced again until the root of the problem, usually a short circuit brought about a line fault; a broken or exhausted line is fixed.

Electric circuits of the vehicles are protected with fuses, circuit breakers as well as fusible links; the P/C fuses are located at the left leg board kick panel for F100 model whereas for Tacoma and 4Runner model at far end of the instrument panel, the EG fuses are situated in the left front corner of an engine compartment. Every fuse is meant to cover a certain circuit which is labeled on the fuse box. Little fuses with blade terminal configuration sliders can be easily removed or inserted using fingertips, and if an electrical component is not working, it is recommended to first check the fuses; using a test light one can check for power at the tips of the exposed terminal, also fuses are easily checked since a blown fuse is usually visibly distinguishable. Blown fuses should be appropriately replaced by the correct fuses; this is because fuses of different capacity can be swapped physically, however, only correct fuse should be fitted into the circuits to provide sufficient protection against electrical currents for each circuit, with the amperage stated on the glass envelope of the fuse. If a new fuse breaks as soon as it is put in then it should not be replaced and reused until the main problem that comes with a short circuit as a result of a damaged or rotten wire is addressed.

If a replacement fuse fails immediately, avoid replacing it again until the underlying problem causing the failure is identified and rectified. Often, this issue arises due to a short circuit resulting from damaged wiring.

In T100 models, the passenger compartment fuse/relay block is located in the left kick panel. In Tacoma and 4Runner models, it is located in the left end of the instrument panel.
