Keep blowing fuses

[2g96GSX]

I have a 2g and my fuss under the hood keeps blowing, it's the tail light and dash light fuss. First I checked all of my wires going to my mods, so it has to be something else. What do I need to do next?

That's about the worst one to have to deal with. Check the radio wiring harness, anything even anywhere near the mods you've done, the wiring by the tailights, gauge wiring... There's a million and one places where that particular circuit can be shorted.

I've had that same problem before.

Turned out that, in one of my bumper lights, water was leaking in down to the bulb, because the o-ring was old, worn, and ripped. I changed the o-rings and bulbs, and never had a problem again.

Just something else to check.

My headlights, brake lights, and blinkers still work, but the dash lights, tail lights, and parking lights don't. I don't think it has nothing to do with the tail lights or the parking lights, because the brake light and blinkers still work. My raidio works fine, but I checked the wiring anyway. I checked all the o-ring seals to, all bulbs are good.

i had the same problem, it was the green/white wire in the radio harness. This is the illumination/dimmer wire and it cannot be hooked up to an aftermarket deck. I had used mine as the ground wire for my deck for some unknow reason and i had the same problem for about a week until i finally figured it out. make sure its not connected to the deck or just touching some metal somewhere. Im pretty positive out harness's dont have a ground wire so u have to make your own. hope that is the problem cause its an easy fix, it not good luck.

ndilo21, I was taking the console off to get to the radio and found a cut wire that goes to a light. So I fixed it and drove the car around. The problem seems to be fixed. Thanks for all the help.
