Replacing light bulbsLED light bulbsThe lights other than the front turn signal lights/parking lights (vehicles without
side turn signal lights), front side marker lights (bulb type), rear turn signal lights,
rear side marker lights (bulb type) and back-up lights consist of a number of LEDs.
If any of the LEDs burn out, take your vehicle to your Toyota dealer to have the light
replaced.Condensation build-up on the inside of the lensIn certain situations, such as when driving in the rain or when washing the vehicle,
condensation may form on the inner side of the headlight lens and other lights. As
each light has a ventilation hole, moist air may enter. If the ambient temperature
is low, condensation may form temporarily, but it will dissipate as the inside of
the light is warmed up. As the condensation is due to a phenomenon similar to windows
fogging in the rain, it does not indicate a malfunction.Contact your Toyota dealer for more information in the following situations:Large drops of water have built up on the inside of the lens.Water has built up inside the headlight.When replacing light bulbsWhen replacing light bulbsReplacing light bulbsFront turn signal/parking lights
