Automotive - 1993 Nissan Altima Fuses Blowing


Expert: Sean Halliday - 10/1/2008

Question
Why does my tail light keep burning out my fuses?

Answer
Either a short in the wiring or wrong bulbs.There are many different ampage settings for tail bulbs.The short is more likely so look for wires loose in the trunk or wires that have been pulled or cut as sometimes people throw things such as golf clubs,tools in the trunk and pull wires or squash them against the body and cause a short.Check also the light unit for water inside the lens and rust on the circuit board.
