Toyota Sienna Fuse location
By floridave | February 18, 2007
A few weeks ago, well last year, I discovered that the tail light on my 1998 Sienna did not work.
One thing I like about the Sienna is that I can leave the headlights on all the time and they go out when you open the drivers door, after you shut off the vehicle. So for the last few years I have never turned them off. I guess with the addition of a hitch and wiring harness for trailer towing might have had something to do with the tail lights failing.
Anyway I tried to find the fuse for the taillights and was unable to find them with the owners manual. It assumed that you know where the fuse panel is. After some searching on the net I discovered that it is behind a small door on the drivers side. That small door is a coin holder.
Anyway this post is only for you other Sienna owners that have yet to discover the fuse panel location is behind the coin holder. You have to open the door and pull up on the door reveling the fuse panel.

Thanks for the info. I couldn’t find where the fuses were either!
Posted by: Diane M Danford on September 15th, 2007 at 8:12 amWow! Talk about a frustrating experience trying to find the missing fuses! I spent about half an hour searching all around the van to find them, only to resort to an internet search that pointed to this page.
Thanks so much for publishing this article!
Posted by: jovino on November 21st, 2007 at 8:51 pmI couldn’t belive my eyes when I read your post. I wired my van for a trailer also and my tail lights stopped working. The manual shows the fuse panel in the engine compartment but nothing but a mention of the drivers side panel. Thank you!!

FUSE Location – is actually in the manual. It may not be as cleas as it could be. Look at the Index Pages and you will find it.
Posted by: Mani on July 8th, 2009 at 8:34 amYes, it is in the manual but the diagram on the back of the coin holder shows a 5A AC fuse … that’s simply NOT there. Where is the AC fuse?
