Danny, that's a great idea. I would never have thought of that. I'm going to try it out the next time I have a problem.

A good tip to save fuses is to get a flasher (like the one that goes in the fuse block or hangs somewhere under the dash) and wire some spade lugs to it and make it where it can be attached to the two ends where the fuse plugs into. This will make the flasher click if there is a short. When the short is found, (by unplugging different harnesses), the flasher will go silent and you will know that you have located the place where the short was. And you saved a lot of blown fuses..............

Light : bulbs can also short out if they quit the wrong way. ----------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe please visit www.chevelles.net/list.html To start a new topic, send mail to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
