In Reply to: Fuse #33 in M Coupe keeps burning out. Help? posted by Esteves on December 03, 2000 at 02:24:24:

It could be that the V1 draws enought additional current that with it AND the lights, the total current is too high. Have you tried disconnecting the V1 and then turning everything else on?

Of course, you could just replace the fuse with a MUCH higher rated one. That way whatever is causeing the short (if there is one) will fry and you'll know the cause ;-)

Fuse #33 controls the front left turn light and the rear left tail light. It also controls the interior roof light and rear trunk light.

I replaced the fuse with the appropriate 10 bus fuse. I can turn on the interior lights and trunk lights with no problems once the new fuse is in.

As soon as I pull on the headlight switch to engage the parking lights and headlights, the fuse blows immediately.

Anyone know what's going on?
