|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!
