My instrumennt light suddenly just started popping fuses. The fuse is 7.5 amp. When i put in a new fuse and turn on the light, then the fuse blows. I have killed 5 fuses so far so I believe it is time for a diffrent approach. Any suggestions?

any bare wires touching one another? Just before this all started, did you tinker around with any electrical components?

there ia a specker amp under the seat, and today i tried the fix the seat because it was stucked. and the power cable was losing, and i scew the cable back to place. everything is working fine, but except the instrument light, fuses keep popping.

Just like DvSnGuYeN said, it sounds like you have two wires which are crossing.

I had a similar problem where my brake lights were coming on whenever my parkers were on, and if I used my brakes then the parkers would come on <lol>

They were both running off my headlight fuse I think, and everytime I pushed my brakes on it'd blow a new fuse.


Turned out I had to get it to an auto electrician and it cost me like $150 for him to find the damned cross :(

before was fine, but once i pull out the power cable of the amp and screw it back. then this happened. i think it is because of that, i will try to rewire all wires of the amp sometime.
