Thanks Randy! That sounds perfectly logical. I'll give it a try. ;-)
Sincerely,
Larry

Hi All,
I have pretty much locked in the procedure of using a Test Light
between the Neg Cable and Neg Post as I look for shorts by pulling
fuses 1 by 1. Thanks for teaching me that new skill!
I was hoping I could use the same procedure to find the individual
parts of components to pinpoint the problem? For instance, the
vanity light may be the culprit - can I put the fuse back in and
disable the vanity light? Hopefully I can unplug it or just pull the
bulb...
Thanks,
Larry

I am no expert but since it does not look like you have had any
response as yet, I will give you my thoughts.
You likely cannot use the test light to test the components.
I would try using a meter. For example, if you suspect the vanity
light, pull the fuse for it and then test the feed to the vanity
mirror light for continuity to ground. You probably need to pull the
bulb too. If you get continuity between the hot side of the bulb
socket and ground, then you have a short to ground.
RB who suspects someone who knows much more about this sort of thing
may have a better idea
