If it is blowing fuses probably a problem with the chicken lights.
Goodysnap and CMSTrkngTX Thank this. -

I agree with @BoxCarKidd. Chicken lights breed shorts to ground. Wires ran around sharp stainless steel brackets with sharp corners.
When the lights are working, look for one thats dimmer than the others or not working at all. The short often be found near a light thats out.
Shake the wiring and see if the fuse blows?spsauerland, CMSTrkngTX and 650cat425 Thank this. -
Thanks, I believe I found the problem, took dash cover down, found were some wires were bare and
arching out, taped them and tie strapped up away from the metal. Replaced more fuses, everything
seems to be working for now. Appreciate your help.650cat425, spsauerland and Goodysnap Thank this.
