My fuse for the radio keeps blowing out on my 2005 Corolla

I had my car serviced with a new Steering belt and ever since my 15amp fuse that controls the radio, CD player, clock, cig lighter, etc keeps blowing out. I've never had any problems with the electrical since I bought it new. Pls help.

Some thing in onr of those components is shorting and /or drawing to much current. If you can't figure out which then you will have to get a diag. The serp belt could not cause this. Look at the 12v plug-ins.

use only 15amp fuses, not larger ever. here.

My 2005 matrix keeps blowing 15amp rear running light fuse every time light get turned on all other lights work fine.whats causing this?

fuses blow because of dead shorts or excess current draw
to blow a 15 amp fuse indicates a dead short
by disconnecting the rear lights , the problem is in something else you have replaced
could be a problem in the head light wiring

How do i find lighter fuse

Lighter fuse for corolla is on the interior fuse panel on LHS of dash. It is labeled CIG. And is a 15amp fuse, this is common for them to blow when people plug in charging devices or sat. Radios into them, try using the power point socket in centre arm rest.

AM2, 15amp, Starter system, "ST" and "IGN" fuses...this fuse on my toyota 2000 corolla keeps blowing. battery is in good condition. Can you please help, as soon as I replace this fuse, and turn the...

Have an auto electrician look at it.

I had the same problem just last week. It turned out to be the idle regulator. Every time the IR got hot it would blow the fuse. You can drive the car without it attached but get it fixed asap. Got one for $40 from a spare parts place ($200 brand new) and my mechanic mate changed it for me (looked easy enough to do it yourself). Good luck.
