Pulled the 27 fuse and it shut off the drivers side lights

Pulled the 28 and it won’t shut off the passengers side. Then proceeded to pull every relay in the fuse box to no avail.

Any help would be great.
Thanks

Sounds like you have a short to power on the wire from the fuse box. I attached the wiring diagram below for us to test.

We need to test for a short and here is a guide that will help do that:

However, the easiest way to do this is pull the fuse feeding the light and then test power at the light. Then go back through the circuit until you find the issue. However, I would suggest just running a new wire then trying to find the spot that has the short in the wire.

Clearly if one light goes out and the other stays on when pulling these fuses then we are getting power from somewhere. We just need to get the power back to being supplied from the fuse like it should.

Let us know what you find. Thanks
