Quick Answer
The 2020 Toyota RAV4 has three main fuse box locations: one in the engine compartment, one under the dashboard (driver's side kick panel), and one in the cargo area.
Engine Compartment Fuse Box
This fuse box is located on the driver's side of the engine bay, usually near the battery. It contains fuses for critical engine components, headlights, and other high-current accessories. Always consult the diagram on the fuse box lid for the most accurate information as variations can occur based on trim level and options.

Cargo Area Fuse Box
This fuse box is typically located in the left-hand side of the cargo area, behind a trim panel. It often contains fuses for rear accessories and sometimes the trailer wiring.
| Fuse # | Amp | Color | Circuit / Component Protected |
|---|---|---|---|
| P/OUTLET R | 15A | Blue | 12V Power Outlet (Cargo Area) |
| TOWING TAIL | 10A | Red | Trailer Tail Lights (if equipped) |
| TOWING STOP | 10A | Red | Trailer Brake Lights (if equipped) |
| ACCESSORY | 15A | Blue | Various Rear Accessories |
How to Test a Fuse
- Locate the fuse: Refer to your vehicle
Before you pull a fuse on the 2020 Toyota RAV4
- Use the label printed on the panel cover or the owner's manual for your exact build. Layouts change with options, model year and build date, so a chart for another truck can be wrong.
- Replace a blown fuse only with the same amp rating. A larger fuse can let wiring overheat.
- A fuse that blows again right away means a short or failing component downstream. Find the cause before replacing it again.
- A good fuse doesn't prove the circuit works — relays, grounds and connectors fail too.
- Disconnect the battery before working near high-current fuses or cables.
