Hey, about a week ago or so, my lights stopped working.
they were fine the night before, i was leaving school, clicked on my lights.
the headlights flipped up, and turned on, but no running lights (taillights/cornering lights). the 15A illumination fuse blew, and after replacing it, it blew again. each time i flip the switch, it blows a fuse, so i stopped replacing it. im just seeing if anyone has had this problem before..

ive already eliminated the light switch, i ohm'd it out, and tested it per the FSM.. it was perfect, All the grounds for the taillights are good (eliminated those also). any other suggestions you guys have, to why i keep blowing the fuse?

You have a short somewhere, simple as that. Are you running a high enough fuse as well? Have you put on aftermarket lights?
