Hello, my toyota rav 4, 1997, blew a fuse and the radio doesn't turn on and the lighter doesn't work. I found the diagram of where the boxes are located, but which box had this particular fuse? Thank you!

On the back side of the lighter there is a fusable link between the incoming power wire and the metal tab that connects power to the lighter. This is a very small wire, bent 90 degrees, between two tabs that are mounted on the same small screw. It looks like the incoming power tab and the power to the lighter would be connected, but they are insulated from each other on the screw. If the fusable link is blown, you will have power at the power connector on the back of the lighter, but no power to the center terminal inside the lighter.
You most likely blew a fuse. Locate the fuse panel and look for the fuse that protects the radio and cig lighter (aux power). be sure to replace it with the same amperage rating as the original one.
Where did you get the fuse diagrams? I have the same problem.
