I've blown a fuse

[Silversalmon]

Quick question, i was changing a footwell bulb and the interior lights have stopped working, think I've blown a fuse. It's a 2010 RX450, the fuses seem tiny, I see there are mini blade fuses and micro blade fuses, anyone know which the Lexus uses? Can't get them out as I'm not dextrous enough so need a fuse puller as well. 

If anyone knows the type I can order on line I guess. TIA

I think they are micro blade in the fuse box under the glove box. If it's one of those you need to be some sort of small bendy creature to change them. 

I wish you well in your quest 😔

They aren't expensive so just order a few of each size and they can be winging their way to you straight away.

There is usually a fuse extraction tool in the main fuse box under the bonnet. Looks like small plastic tweezers coloured white.

Must be me, but I had no luck finding the micro fuses online.  Every time I tried I got ones which were ever so slightly longer than the ones in my car (under the console box).  The ones I need are 8.8mm in height and the ones that are available are 10mm.  The picture shows the difference.  I know Halfords do them (although I am loathed to pay those prices for fuses).

Nipped down to Lexus Glasgow this morning, brilliant service, they supplied and fitted, free of charge, my fuse box is in the engine compartment, spent ages looking around under the dash, as the manual said... Top marks to Glasgow Lexus
