Re: fuse blinks red as soon as I put in
I have no idea what it means that as soon as i put a fuse in turn b/u it blows right away? Can anyone at least tell me what color wires to look for turn signal wires??

Re: fuse blinks red as soon as I put in
I don't know any wire colors but since no one else has replied yet I'll just state the obvious. Since it's blowing as soon as you plug it in, it probably means that you have a short to ground in the circuit somewhere. I don't remember if the turn signals are ground-side switched or not, but assuming that they are, you'd be looking for a short before the bulb, otherwise you'd just have a constantly on light. Unfortuntely I don't have any tips for finding the short, but look for obvious things like chewed or pinched wires to the signals.
