ToggleToyota Corolla (1998 – 2002) Fuse Box Location and Diagrams Guide
This guide covers Toyota Corolla fuse box locations and diagrams from 1998 to 2002. Understanding fuse placement speeds up electrical troubleshooting and fuse replacement.
Checking and replacing fuses

If the headlights or other electrical components do not work, check the fuses. If any of the fuses are blown, they must be replaced.
Turn the ignition switch and inoperative component off. Pull a suspected fuse straight out and check it.
Determine which fuse may be causing the problem. The lid of the fuse box shows the name of the circuit for each fuse. See Section 8 of this manual for the functions controlled by each circuit.
Type A fuses can be pulled out by the pull−out tool. The location of the pull−out tool is shown in the illustration.
If you are not sure whether the fuse has blown, try replacing the suspected fuse with one that you know is good.
If the fuse has blown, push a new fuse into the clip.
Only install a fuse with the amperage rat-ing designated on the fuse box lid.
If you do not have a spare fuse, in an emergency you can pull out the “A/C” or “S−HTR” fuse, which may be dispensable for normal driving, and use it if its amperage rating is the same.
If you cannot use one of the same amper-age, use one that is lower, but as close as possible to, the rating. If the amperage is lower than that specified, the fuse might blow out again but this does not indicate anything wrong. Be sure to get the correct fuse as soon as possible and return the substitute to its original clip.
It is a good idea to purchase a set of spare fuses and keep them in your ve-hicle for emergencies.
