It should be a fuse i think??
Like everyone else said, your car is drivin' right now.
My car hasn't been drivin' in almost a month.
Sat for 3 weeks for the body shop to pick up my car.
And now it's been a week and a half in the body shop.

Whats up with the down cars? Unplug a relay from something else and switch them around to see if you get power.

No more electronics for you and no more LED license plate frames.

But in all seriousness anything lighted you install add an inline fuse.

Amen. Lol. I just got back with about an hour ago. It runs much better, idles smoother quicker for some reason and everything works again! I must say I'm sold on Toyota's now...It still ran and drove basically with out a ECU. The power to that was dead. Engine ran great, trans didn't shift very nicely but once it got up to 50 or 60 it was fine.

Also, glad I brought the camera....I hit a "milestone" on the way home:

I know how it is to drive like that :) ... Even though my problem wasn't remotely as serious as yours. I drove like that last year to Longo when I was too lazy to put the console back together when I was replacing a couple of backlights (the hazard one seemed like the wrong size but my main concern was replacing the climate control's backlight too).
