New here looks like an awesome forum. I have a 1985 k10.
I got my truck from my dad when he gave me it the horn the dome light curtassy lights and cigar didn't work. I first tried the fuse nada blew right as I put it in. I looked at my dome light the wires on the back side had melted. I fixed them and tested the section from Dome to the panel above speaker and it is fine. Next went under sill plate and that lookes fine. I hurd the cigar lighters go bad I pulled it and replaced with a new one that has the separate ground wire I wired that and The hot on it to my CD player as it has a independent wire that I ran right to the battery hot for my presets. So i now have a cigar lighter for my cell charger. I then went to install a fuse thinking I may of fixed the problem
Nada. I pulled my relay and installed a fuse and it didnt blow. I then installed a new relay I purchased when I got the fuses. As soon as I installed the relay, the fuse blew. Im now wondering what to do besides pull the gauges out and trace my #240 circuit wires aka horn wires and search for melted kinked etc wire. I also just realized my curtassy lights are on the same circuit as my tail lights. My tail lights work. But I was told my a person I may have a tail light out so I'm wondering if I have a short in the left side. Could that affect my horn curtassy lights etc? It would seem weird if it could they aren't even close to the same circuit. Any help would surely be appreciated.
