tc6droptop Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Newbie here,,,,,,Ok, so i am helping my neighbor work on his 1993 GS 300. The car has a good battery. There are no lights on the dash, gauges are not moving when attempting to turn over the car. So I checked the fuses and it appears there is a blown 100A fuse. I have never worked on a Lexus so I am unfamilar with replacing the fuses. Can someone direct me how to remove the 100a fuse in the fuse box (located in the engine compartment)? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hacker_720 Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I never changed it on my Lexus, but on my Toyota it was bolted in, and I broke it trying to pull it out, so just take care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogmanrog98 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Some of those MEGA fuses are actually screwed in, and have an actual wire attatched to the electrode of the fuse. Have to somewhat dissasemble the fusebox to get them out. Ran into this on an IS someone jumped the battery backwards and blew all the fuses.

lonnielew Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Ditto these other guys. The bigger bus fuses ARE SCREWED IN.... You have to remove fuse box from casing to remove screws first. My fuse box did NOT want to come out of the casing. Took me like 30-40 mins to get the sucker out. I removed the entire box off it's mounts and also removed the other tight fitting wire leads. Depressed the plastic dog-ears holding it in the case and it RE-FUSED (no pun...maybe some) to come out. Must have been settled in for so long that I almost had to break the casing from around the fuse box. Finally with much INFLUENCE I got the thing out and was able to remove the p-leads that are screwed into the bottom of those blasted bus fuses that hold them in so well. After removing the old busted bus fuses that had ring connectors and were "screwed-in". I replaced them using the after-market opened-ended ones which won't require all that crap I had to go through the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
