My running lights and dash lights keep blowing the fuse with in of 1 min of replacement. I have tried larger and smaller fuses the same thing happened. This has been a great truck for me I just need lights at night

Hello,

Before you replace the fuse, which you should absolutely never increase the amperage of fuse, you need to fix the why of why is it blowing fuses. The why part is because you probably have a short to ground in the circuit. If you could kindly get back to me with circuit of the fuse or what the fuse is controlling I can pull up wiring diagrams for that circuit of your vehicle and we can track the short to ground and get it fixed so you won't be blowing any more fuses.

Thanks,
Alex
