hiiii

My dash lights, fog lights arn't working, i aaume they both are connected to the illumination fuse, it keeps breaking i can't figure out why

if i put a new fuse in they work for a few seconds then it breaks again. i havn't changed anything eletrically for at least a month, just out of the blue

i did put new LED's for the dash but that was 3 months ago and they have been fine until now

i've read it could be something to do with my illumination wire in the headunit which is aftermarket, but ive had that in since i brought the car

I'll check it tomorrow anyway

does anyone know what else could be the problem

check for a pinched wire somewhere in your system you have a short. either that or you are loading up the circuit too much

never go LED's I learnt the hard way with a similar problem...

 

lost my tail lights, cause of LED parkers..  they dont technically blow.. they melt and cause a short... wasted about 10 fuses till i found the problem..
