Shorted out backup lights
I have a 94 F-250 reg cab. It has a 351 eng and E40D trany. Last year installed extra back up lights by patching into the factory back up circuit. Doing this shorted out the factory lights. Now every time i put a new fuse in the fuse block i blow it out instantly. I the bad part of the whole situation is that the cruse controle works off the same circuit. I drive 70 miles a day highway and would love to get my cruse back. Can anyone help me and possibly give me a starting point and a method to track this problem. The fuse is in the block under the hood on the driver side.
any help will be greatly appriciated.
