The fuse which controls my dashboard lights, gas gauge and heat gauge as well as my turn signals keeps blowing out whenever i start my car
I have replaced the fuse twice, but whenever I start my car, about 1 second after I hear an audible click and the fuse goes out, none of my other fuses are effected by this.

The fuse still goes even if I just turn the key to run, and I do not have a test light.

Your going to need a test light i was going to have you check and see if you had a dead short to that fuse.

Thats where the test light would help to isolate the short with a visual feed back.
