Today i received my LED light for the shifter. As go i go to put it in theres a very small spark, it lights up then it goes out along with the aqua blue lighting on the radio and the A/C knobs aswell.
WTF happened? Blown fuse or could it be something worst?
Please help me out with this...

fuse is outtt! nothing worse. Same exact thing happened to me. Check underneath the hood in the fuse box or underneath the steering wheel column. Replace the fuse. I think it was a 10 or 12 amp but im not too sure.

I'll swap it out first thing tomorrow after work... Hope that does the trick.
Sucks driving around at night with no interior lighting.
Can anything be done about the housing for the LED if it feels loose? It didnt quite lock in, just kinda slipped in and out. Doubt i'll hit a bump big enough to knock it out, but i would like it secure in there.

Toyota claims its NOT the fuse. I havent changed it yet since im not exactly sure which one it is but i'll try to do so later. They said it looks to be an electrical problem but I hope their wrong because who knows how long that could take to fix, or if it'd work like new again.

HAHA. they trying to get money from you. have you go in, drop off the car, charge you a couple hundred when in reality, all they did was change a $1 fuse.
You can read the plate that covers the fuse panel. Try the one's you think would work. Or if you have a 12v test light, you could check every fuse and then narrow down which one isn't working
They wouldnt get anything regardless due to my warranty, but i did find a blown fuse underneath my steering wheel. It's a 7.5 but didnt see any that small at Pep Boys. Though in the manual there is another 7.5 and its use states, "No Circuit". Would it be safe to pull that one and use it in replace to the blown fuse?

There should be 1 spare fuse there. I believe its that.
I just took the one that said "No Circuit" next to it and used that... These are the results...
I still need to find a replacement just incase.
I appreciate the help though everyone. Good lookin out
