Cig lighter is maybe the most common to get loose and short out along from
my exp. with a trailer pigtail that is grounding out the stop lights.

Subject: Blown fuse

84 wolfy Westy

Last fall I blew fuse #8 (interior lights, cig lighter, and stop lights),
now when I try to replace the fuse with another 8 amp fuse it sparks and
blows right away.  So obvioulsy I've got a short or something somewhere.  I
guess I'm looking for suggestions from the volks on tracking this problem
down.  Thanks in advance!
