ukrkoz,

I have seen this, this is the same thing as the manual under Fuses. I don’t see high beam DRL fuse in there.

Do you know if its there?

Thanks.

I think it's #10
10 H-LP-MAIN

Otherwise, DRL is hardwired into the headlight relay. DRL is said to still run even with fuse removed. Safety measure.
Do you have 12V at the plug? If not, your headlight relay may be damaged.

Try this, said to be generic to Toyota:

Open the glove box. Locate the headlight module at the back of the glove box. The headlight module is the black unit mounted sideways with a wiring harness connected to its side.

Unplug the harness from the module and pull the module out of the vehicle.

 

Ok thanks.

Right now the drl and high beams are working constantly, have started and stopped the engine multiple times since yesterday, this led me to believe that it may not be the fuse, also the steering selector is set to auto so it is not the selector switch.

I am leaning towards a relay issue. Now i open up the engine fuse box (it has 3 relays on top left side grey color) the headlight rely is the bottom one, i am thinking about either swapping it with each other (they all look same) once the problem is happening or just replace it right away.

Any suggestions?

Let us know how it develops. To be honest, who knows what aftermarket lights can do to electronics. Though we didn't have such issues reported yet.
I know that our then RX300 simply refused to accept well working aftermarket tail light bulbs and kept throwing bad bulb warning on the dash for years, with ALL lights working just fine.

 

Ok, so here is the update, car was running fine with the original halogen's for 3-4 days. I felt comfortable to put my LED lights back on, so I changed that. They ran fine, no issues at all. Not sure what the problem was.

BTW I did plug/unplug my relays, re-inserted the low beam/high beam cables just to make sure they are not loose.

So after all the car is running fine for the last week or so.

 

Good. Let's keep her that way.

 

Problem re-appeared, but I found the root cause

Ok, so the car ran for almost good 2-3 weeks, before my High Beam/DRL stopped working again.

I tried the usual, replacing LED's with Halogen, NO go, even OEM halogens weren't working. I used the multi-meter to test whether the plug is getting any DC voltage, it shows dead, no voltage.

I then opened up the fuse box and was just looking to see any magic to happen, when I accidentally pressed against one 10AMP fuse, and boom............the DRL turned on, I pressed it again and it was gone, pressed again hard, it came on.

It is this Fuse in the picture: Can someone comment on whether I need to replace the fuse or something else? Also what is the purpose of this fuse?

Sorry for bringing up an old thread but My 2012 high beams suddenly quit working last night. Did you ever figure out the fix with this fuse in the pic?

 

Take fuse out.
Take needle nose pliers and GENTLY curve fuse blades along long axis. Maybe 2 degrees.
Firmly place it back in.
That should do the trick on both fuse and fuse receptacle.

 

Hey,

Sorry for the late reply, been busy at work. Since I pressed the fuse, I didn't have any problems, but just for the sake if anybody else has the same issue, what do you exactly mean by curving the fuse blade? See the pictures below, which one do you mean, 1 or 2?

 

I know. I, actually, responded to old OP question. How to secure fuse in fuse box.
