Remove the bulb, inspect and clean (rust?) the socket. After cleaning spray some electronic contact cleaner and lube in the socket. Example of spray: De-Oxit: Radio Shack may still have there brand of contact cleaner and lube. If not one of the above then a break in wiring somewhere that's grounding out. |
Re: Blowing fuses Found the problem, front passenger parking/turn signal socket wires are dry rotted and brittal and hot wire was rubbing the fender. I'll have to get a new socket |
