2010 fxdb turn signal and brake light problems
Hello all. Current problem is this silly bike keeps blowing the fuse for the turn signal and brake lights. My local shop helped me out with there being a bad bulb socket on the left side. Replaced the socket, and bulb. New fuse, fire the bike up to go for a ride and it pops the fuse. Wtf? I love the bike, and even tho its my first hog, its not my first bike. I'm not a mechanical idiot either, but this is really starting to **** me off. Any ideas on what else to check would help. Thanks.

Fuses blow because too many amps flow through them. It protects the wiring and equipment the wires are connected too. I would be willing to bet you have a hot wire going to ground somewhere. If it is intermittent it will be harder to find. have you changed anything recently? Also check under your fender. The wiring harness to your tail/brake lights run along the inner edge of your fender. Lots of people have had problems there.
