I guess you'll have to take them to court , have a sit down or bill them after you get it fixed

The "tech" who messed it up can fix it up! Sounds like he hooked up a positive (hot) wire to a ground connection! Hope that helps! Jim

Try the power distribution box in the engine compartment. But if you do find the main fuse that blown and when you replace it and it blows again then the circuits are still shorted. UHaul guys are not mechanics so you may need your shop to fix the problem if UHaul can’t.

The uhaul admitted their mistake but refused to fix it. I took to Toyota dealer and the could not find the problem. I think they didn’t want to mess with it because of legal issues. I tried to sue but too much cost involved. Is there a main fuse that controls all the electrical power? I know Acura has it but not sure Toyota

Odd as money hungry dealers are. Well any good independent shop can do it.
