Blowing Fuses!
I just started to blow fuses on my 86 coupe.It is the fuse that controls the interior lights that come on at night.I replaced it with a larger one to no avail.Also with a new fuse it causes the fuse for the tail lamps to go out.Any ideas?I was just working under the driver side.Thanks

more then likely, something is grounding out.
a good example - I kept blowing the courtesy fuse on my 92. I found that the nylon incert had given up and fallen out of the door. This meant that the screw had fallen loose and was touching the metal. Every so often, I would touch the plastic panel, like when opening the door, and the screw would ground to the light bulb!!!!
