Here's a question that I humbly submit to the electrical guru's and wiring wizards who may be reading.
I am installing licence plate lights.They are 73 MY the rectangular ones. Easy right? The lights work great until I screw them into the bumper, then the fuse blows. I have a feeling that they should not light until they are screwed into the bumper, and they are somehow supposed to ground when they are screwed into the bumper. Or something along those lines. Before I burn out my last fuse, could someone point me in the right direction? Should the lights light when they are hanging unattached. It's uncanny, they work great until I screw them in, then the fuse blows...What's going on? Do I have the wires crossed? Please help! |
