A couple of questions:
Which fuse blows? What year is your car? Does the fuse blow when the key is turned on with the lights on or off? Did you recently do any work in or around any wires or on the dashboard? Do you have a multimeter? BTW, I think it is normal for the signal lights to be on continuously if the turn signal is left in the turning position. I've noticed this on my car too. If you can see your turn signals on with the key off, then the turn signal wires would seem to be ok. Spoke |
