    Was trying to replace the interior lights with LED and all the lights are gone. Searched manual and fuse box and cannot find any clue.

    Here I attach the picture of main fuse box. Please let me know if you know the location. Thanks

    Even the headlights?

    Will it (the car) turn on?

    Open the hood, fuses are on the right side, check for blown fuses, the schematic is on the backside of the cover, tricklecharging the 12v is always a good thing once a month, you might trickle charge it overnight.
    Especially if an inserted fuse is shorting the system, or shorted it.

    Only dome lights are gone.

    I attached the picture of the driver side main fuse box. Other Toyota vehicles has fuse marked as DOME for map lights but not on Prime. Maybe There is a hidden fuse box? I just cannot tell which fuse it is.

    I pulled every fuse out and could not find the dead one.

    Here is the passenger side fuse box picture. I also checked the manual and there are 2 fuse boxes. I checked inside and cannot find a fuse box.

    There are 3 locations for the fuse boxes for the Prius Prime, is it the same with your model?

    For the Prius Prime, the interior lights are on the DOME fuse. It’s a brown 7.5 A fuse in the Instrument Panel Junction Block Assembly, the one shown under “Left side instrument panel” in the figure kindly shared above by @PCPrime.

    Thank you guys!

    Yes I followed the picture and located it. It is really hard to get there. I used a 10A back up fuse to replace it.

    Thanks again!
