2001 Camry Fuse Problem

[usfarah]

on a 2001 Camry, I accidentally jump started the car with the leads revesed. A bunch of fuses were blown. I replaced them. The alarm and the (extra) cigarette lighter still don't work - the fuses must be blown. I can't seem to find them. Where are they and is it just a fuse problem or are relays bloen too? Please help. Thank You.

did you check the fuses in the engine compartment as well as in the dashboard? also the 'high current' style fuses, the ones in the small plastic housings with the clear cover, need to be checked.

By dashboard do you mean behind the coin tray? I checked these visually and they were fine. The fuses with clear plastic looked good too. The problem is that the manual lists many things (alarm, fuel injection, light, etc.) for each fuse, which is confusing. Can you pull out the fuses with a clear plastic cover? They looked too flimzy to pull out! Thanks

there are two types, the ones that are about 1cm square pull out, then there are larger ones that are bolted in, usually only in the engine compartment. however the whole point of the clear cover is so you can visually inspect them. and yes i meant behind the coin holder but your response is yes.
