I have searched the internet, this forum, that forum, pretty much everywhere for a solution. My car is blowing tail light fuses(the running lights that come on automatically with your headlights) and I have no idea why. I have been using ebay LED tail lights for over 5 years now and have never had this issue. I put in a 20Amp fuse and it lasts for about 2 weeks then blows. I just figured I would ask if anyone else had seen this problem before and if they might have a common solution...

Thanks

You got a short to ground on the power side. Break the harness and trace the broken wire. If wires are ok, you are left with a defective tail light

I put my original tails back in today (with all new bulbs) and the running lights do not work at night while I'm driving but brake lights do work when i press the brakes so....which fuse do i need to change and where is it???let me know asap

So I break the harness for the tail light not the car correct? Once this is accomplished how do I "trace the broken wire"? I have a multi-meter that can check just about anything but do not know what I am looking for... btw my electronics skills are very low so I apoligize for the redundance

Thanks for your help, thats the best answer I have seen so far...

You start from the tail light connect and work ur way up.

Oh but wait it gets better, now my power windows (except for my front driver side) do not work, power locks do not work, and automatic adjustable sterring wheel no longer moves (unless I use the control stick). Just curios if this points to something, car has 197K and drives great...

Now that I am home and it is night I notice a green indicator is illuminated and everything else is pitch black? That does not seem right as I think this means my headlights are on but they are not...
