Was driving to BK tonight everything going real good when I noticed my dash/hvac lights where not on. My headlights where still on so I pulled into BK to see if my taillights where on. Sure enough they where out, so I checked all the fuses under the dash and they where all good. Got the car home checked the fuses under the hood. My 15A fuse for the taillights was blown. I put another 15A in turned on the lights and nothing. But I did hear a pop so I checked the fuse I just replaced and it was also blown. Any ideas as to why the fuses are blowing?? I read that the 2Gs run their dash/taillights/radio off the same fuse. The car does have an aftermarket HU in it. But everything has been going great until tonight. Any ideas??
 
Figured it out, I think it was a series of a few thing affecting it. One whoever installed the HU in the car was an idiot because the ground wire was grounded to plastic, so the only thing grounding out the HU was the radio antena. And two I had to bare wires touching on my bumper lights so all is fixed.
