2G: turn signals blowing fuses.

[MikeSD]

read a few thread on the topic but didn't find the answer I need.

Last weekend I swapped my 2ga for 2gb bumper and new oem style headlights.
Head lights work and high beams work and for awhile the turn signals worked.
But two nights ago I was turning right and had my signal on and it went very fast, then would not turn off, then when i flipped the lever back to center it just stayed on. Then flipped the left turn signal on and both indicators went solid (not flashing) then poof nothing.

The fuse blew so I changed that, but as soon as you turn the signals on the fuse blows.
I checked each signal bulb at all four corners to make sure all bulbs were good and they are. I even put my old 2ga front signal bulbs in to see if there was a load difference, and fuse still blows.

Hazards do not work as well since fuse just pops.

I am guess the flasher relay is bad, but my question is would this cause the fuse to pop? Could the relay going bad cause a short?

I am also having issues sourcing the flasher relays.....any help would be appreciated?

it sounds like a short to ground check all the wiring for chaffing

The problem was a shorted out socket in the right turn signal on my new head lights. Pain in the ass to track down but at least it was not a shorted wire somewhere along the way.
