Last night I noticed my tail and side marker lights were not working. So I checked the fuse and it was blown. No big deal so i go and changed it. But when i go to turn on the headlights the fuse blows again. I checked the rear tail light bulbs and they are all good.
Any suggestions?
I’m thinking it might be the headlight switch.
Thanks for the help

Do you have any problems with your front signals, i had the same problem on and off, i would think everything was fixed and driving then it would go out,
is your cluster effected to?
It ended up being the wiring for my front signal, one little section rubbed and was grounding on my rebar.
Retaped it, and never had the problem again.
