Guest Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Really struggling to find our 2004 Alphard cigarette lighter fuse. Everything I have read (online, and p.284 of the JPNZ manual) seems to suggest that this fuse is located on a fuse box in behind the passenger side glove compartment and that it's supposed to be a 15A fuse numbered 25 on that panel. However, after lifting out the glove compartment door I can't see anything resembling a fuse box in there. The JPNZ manual does say "Consult your Toyota dealer when you need to check or replace fuses in this box" which seems somewhat extreme. Can anybody assist please? Thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moomins2 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 The Alphard fuses that are behind the passenger lower glove box are hidden. First remove the door of the glove box and the small panel right in the front corner next to the door, there is a plastic covered screw that has to be removed to get the small panel out, no tools just unscrew with your fingers.This panel also has the fuse diagram printed on it. At first inspection it looks like there are no fuses present, but if you get yourself a torch and get right under the panel and look up,you will see the fuses,they face down towards the floor. Once you have found them good luck getting to them as there is not much room. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJ3705 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 This was brilliant bit of advice. I have been searching for months for the fuse panel for cig lighter. It was only when I read this that I finally found it. Much appreciated. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picasso Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Long nose pliers are the best way to reach the fuses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carefully prise up the facia and lift slightly on lighter side you will see it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passenger side really hard to see. remove lower glove box, remove trim panel to left of footwell (there is plastic nut holding trim) you will need a torch and long nose pliers. you have to get under the tight space and look up using torch. Fuses on passenger side face downwards towards floor so you wont see them unless you get right under where lower glove box is. The plastic trim you remove has fuse list and position of fuse on a label at the back of the trim, the plastic nut can be removed using just fingers. The thing that puzzles me is why your key fob isnt working, check light comes on on fob when you press it if not change battery.
