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. |

Sounds like an ATC. Try a 30 Amp one, but give some thought to seperating the 4 red wires and fuse them individually. You should have two 4.0 mm ones and two 2.5 mm ones that connect to the + battery terminal, or maybe now, to your fuse.
