Can anybody give me a hint on what to do? I keep blowing my brake lights fuse. Every time i touch the brakes, the fuse blows instanty. I did notice the other day, before this problem, that when I put my brakes on my front turns signals would light up. Any deas would be appreciated
thanks

If you happen to have a trailer wiring harness, try unplugging it and see what happens. This is the common cause for blowing fuses.

Make sure you check the brake light switch on the brake pedal. This switch activates the second you put pressure on the brake pedal. Check to make sure that it is not grounding out as you put pressure on the pedal. This would cause the fuse to blow if it is grounding out.
