Quick answer
Your 2025 Toyota RAV4 has three main fuse box locations:
- Under the hood: A large fuse and relay box is located in the engine bay, typically on the driver's side.
- Driver's side dash: A smaller fuse panel is situated behind a trim panel, low on the dashboard to the left of the steering column.
- Cargo area: A third fuse box can be found in the rear cargo compartment on the driver's side, behind an access panel.
Under-Hood Fuse Box
This primary fuse box contains high-amperage fuses and critical relays for engine and chassis systems. The layout is printed on the underside of the fuse box lid—always verify your specific vehicle against it.
| Fuse # | Amp | Color | Circuit / Component Protected |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 50A | Red | Main Battery, Alternator |
| 2 | 40A | Green | ABS/VSC System Pump |
| 3 | 30A | Pink | Electric Power Steering (EPS) |
| 4 | 30A | Pink | Blower Motor (HVAC) |
| 5 | 20A | Yellow | Engine Control Module (ECM), Main |
| 6 | 20A | Yellow | Fuel Pump |
| 7 | 15A | Blue | Ignition Coils |
| 8 | 15A | Blue | Starter Relay Control |
| 9 | 10A | Red | Headlights, High Beam (Right) |
| 10 | 10A | Red | Headlights, High Beam (Left) |
| 11 | 10A | Red | A/C Clutch Relay |
| 12 | 10A | Red | Horn |
Relay Locations (Under-Hood)
- R1: Starter Relay
- R2: A/C Clutch Relay
- R3: Fuel Pump Relay
- R4: Main Relay
Driver's Side Dash Fuse Box
This interior panel handles most of the cabin electronics and safety systems. It's often called the "kick panel" fuse box.
| Fuse # | Amp | Color | Circuit / Component Protected |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20 | 15A | Blue | 12V Power Outlet / Cigar Lighter |
| 21 | 15A | Blue | Audio System / Radio |
| 22 | 10A | Red | Tail Lights / Parking Lights |
| 23 | 10A | Red | Brake Switch (Stop Lights) |
| 24 | 10A | Red | SRS Airbag System |
| 25 | 7.5A | Brown | Instrument Cluster / Gauges |
| 26 | 7.5A | Brown | Ignition Switch (ACC) |
| 27 | 7.5A | Brown | Power Mirrors |
Cargo Area Fuse Box
This location often services accessories and rear-body components. Due to trim variations (e.g., models with premium audio or rear power outlets), it's essential to check the fuse diagram on the panel's cover.
| Fuse # | Amp | Color | Circuit / Component Protected |
|---|---|---|---|
| 40 | 20A | Yellow | Rear 12V Power Outlet |
| 41 | 15A | Blue | Trailer Brake Control (if equipped) |
| 42 | 10A | Red | Interior Dome/Map Lights |
| 43 | 7.5A | Brown | Rear Wiper |
How to test a fuse
A blown fuse is a common and easy-to-fix issue. You can test a fuse in two ways:
- Visually: Pull the fuse straight out of its slot. Hold it up to the light. Inside the plastic body is a small metal strip. If that strip is broken or melted, the fuse is blown.
- With a Multimeter: For a more definitive test, set your multimeter to the continuity setting. Touch one probe to each metal tang on the top of the fuse. If the multimeter beeps or shows a reading of near-zero, the fuse is good. If it remains silent or reads "OL" (over-limit), the fuse is blown.
Always replace a blown fuse with one of the exact same amperage rating. Using a higher-rated fuse can cause severe damage to the electrical system.
Common blown fuses on this vehicle
- 12V Power Outlet / Cigar Lighter (15A): This is the most common fuse to blow. It often happens when a faulty phone charger or other accessory is plugged in. Before replacing the fuse, check the device you were using for damage.
- Radio / Audio (15A): If your infotainment screen suddenly goes black, this fuse is the first place to look. Aftermarket stereo installations are a common cause if the wiring was not done correctly.
- Blower Motor (30A): If your cabin fan stops working on all speeds, this fuse is a likely culprit. If it blows repeatedly, the blower motor itself or its resistor may be failing and drawing too much current.
Note: The fuse numbers and positions provided are based on the most common configuration for the 2025 Toyota RAV4. Trim levels and optional equipment can cause variations. Always verify the fuse layout by checking the diagram printed on the inside of the fuse box cover in your vehicle.

Before you pull a fuse on the 2025 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.
