Blinker Fuse blowing.

My blinkers work great. My headlights work great, but when I turn my headlights on the blinker fuse blows. Anyone have an idea where to start looking? All the bulbs work fine.

My truck is a 1989 F250 XLT Lariat with the 460 fuel injected.

Thank a lot.
Dominick

Sounds like a short circuit. Your headlight circuit is somehow applying a voltage (with too much amp draw I might add) to your blinker circuit and causing the fuse to blow.
