Is it one or all of them? If it is just a few, it could be that the bulbs themselves have reached their limit. I have had to replace two of mine recently. Bulbs burn out, and when these do, it's not an easy task on some of them.

The one's directly in front of the driver, under the large, clear screen which holds all of the dials and such; you can reach from the back,but you have to have skinny and very flexible arms, hands & fingers. There is a little bulb holder that twists in with a half-twist. Really dumb design, if you ask me, but it is what it is.

I tried local parts stores for a cheap replacement, but in the end the only place I could get the right ones were from Toyota and they are (surprise) way more expensive than they should be.

The ones located behind the heating controls are a bit easier, you have to remove the panel itself and install the bulbs from the back. Careful with the trim panels through, very easy to break them and they are hundreds of dollars to get replacements!

Hi, I have circled the fuse in question. If the fuse is burned, the problem may be due to an improperly wired aftermarket stereo. If you have an aftermarket stereo and this fuse keeps burning, please get back to me.
