K, this has me scratching my head for 12 hours now (starting to get a bald spot as a result).
A few weeks ago, throwing a right blinker on started blowing my blinker fuse.
What's weird is that, now that I removed the battery, what I thunk was a blinker relay, and the bulbs, I get a continuity across the contacts in the fusebox (see the clip I just posted on YouTube). Not only that, but I get a "blinking" continuity.
First off, I should not be getting continuity there at all with everything taken out - if there was continuity, that means the fuse is completely bypassed with a short, so it should not be blowing the fuse (instead, the battery should be on fire, lol).
Second, why the heck is it "blinking" that way?
And finally, where the heck is the relay for the blinkers?
I thunk it was the little box to the left of the fuses, but as you can see it in the vid, I took that sucka out.
I'm now in the process of removing the miles of tape that make up the wiring harness, hoping to trace the problem, but a little bit of guidance could save me hours of work
