fuse box should have a cover and it doesn't get drenched.

fuse boxes
1.engine bay
2.cab under dash on the drivers side
3.frunk passenger side
and there is a fuse block behind the passenger side kick panel. if you need pics i'll try to get you some.

The really stupid thing Toyota Enginners did was to put the MAIN electrical negative assembly point next to the Fuse Box you indicated gets drenched everytime it rains. The battery negative terminal bolts to the chassis underneath this point. Dahh...
Stupid is as stupid does.

My next bitch is to look down the engine cover vent hole on the pass side.
Who in they're right freakin mind would put a drain hole DIRECTLY over the alternator.??

Then the headlight electrical engineering?? Master electrical switch?? Don't get me started......
