Okay, I am really irritated with this.
1. I cannot find a short in any wiring 2. The parking lights, which did blow a fuse no longer blow a fuse (more on this later) 3. Now the headlights do with the ignition on 4. The parking light, tail lights, and brake light on the LEFT SIDE ONLY do not work 5. Could the headlight switch be the problem? 6. I have a fuse at the battery. With electronic ignition and carb, how many amps is reasonable for that fuse? Thanks. |

No shorts, check grounds, that power is being drawn for some reason. 4. Grounds, mine did the same thing until I cleaned them all. 5. Don't know 6. LESS Smitty |
