blowing fuses
 
I have got a problem my fuse that controls my blikners reverse light tach and engine lights keeps blowing it is a 10 amp fuse could it be my relay is going or a loose connection somewhere... I did what everyone knows your not supposed to do and put a large fuse in a 30 amp and it lasted for about 15 minutes and i used my blinker 4 times but then it blew. If anyone can help :thumbup:

you have a short somewhere, bust out the multimeter and go nuts.

no kidding.

Try to fast track, your lights share the same fuse. I would check for a break or corrosion of a wire leading to your tail lights, or corner lights.

When found soder the connection and wrap it with shrink tube.

Yes I had the same problem I was driving and my cluster lights would go out and same as my rear lights. After searching for the short I found that the last owner spliced into the corner light for his side markers. His creative wiring and duct tape did not do the job and kept on shorting out.

honestly i believe that is the biggest problem with people modifying their cars, incorrect wiring.
