Light Under Shifter Not Working..

[Benjerman123]

Hi there,

I own a 2001 IS300 and the bulb that lights up the gear letters stopped working. More likely a blown fuse or bulb? I've looked through the manual and cannot find a specific fuse for this...help me out!!

Thanks!

You won't find a fuse that is dedicated to this one bulb. I replaced the shift indicator bulb on our Camry a few months ago -- wasn't all that hard. The shift indicator bulb on the IS300 looks like it is about the same place as in our Camry -- see the attached diagram for the 01 IS.

Don't know the bulb replacement procedure for the IS but it was a matter of shifting the Camry into neutral and pulling the shifter surround upward to get to the bulb underneath.

Great, thank you!! I will give it a shot this weekend.
