Blowing Fuses

I've been doing 20~25amp fuses lately, an i think its due to the upgraded headlights i did, i had basic basic headlights and would plug things into my cig lighter, no issues, now i plug things in and my fuse keeps blowing, even at 25amps, i don't know what to do... I have the best headlamps they sell at autozone... xtravision or something?

Lighter Not Lights

The headlight circuit has nothing to do with the lighter circuit.

Most likely the lighter socket needs to be replaced.


Happy Racing!



How bout those too scared to drive without headlights in the daytime and the ones that need headlights for a little rain
