When i turn on my lights! And then press the brake pedal it makes the tail light fuse blow! I have checked that all the bulbs aren't blown and all the wiring seems to be fine! Now my dad and i are stumped? Any ideas in what it may be?

 

Cheers Leigh

Has to be a short somewhere.

What was the last electrical thing you touched in the car before the problem appeared?

Only put a new motor in! haven't touched anything electrical! thats why I'm so confused! :ninja:

Maybe one of the Earths in the engine bay is a bit dodgy. Check and clean them.

Cheers ill go give that a go now!

Went to see a auto sparky today, and he found that when the boot was being shut it was pinching a wire that goes to the rear demister (which i don't have) and shorting out! So a six pack later and now i can drive at night again! :y:

man you have got to love auto electricians for their expertise. it can take days of agony to fix the

problem yourself, thats if you ever find it lol...
