you can do it with a meter but especially go buy a circuit breaker of the=

proper amperage, instead of more fuses
keep backing up until you find your short

put all your fuses back in the proper slots when you finish !

Subject: [Shop-talk] Fuses
OK, I'm sure I'm missing something here, but I figured=20
I'd ask.=20
My Jeep had a short circuit and blows a fuse if I turn on the lights.=20
So I remove all bulbs on the circuit and try again. Blown fuse.=20
I take some other items off the circuit and try again, blown fuse.=20
Moving around and trying different things, blowing fuses all around.=20
I found the short, fixed it and all is well.=20
My question is, is there a way to do this without having to blow fuses? I'=
m=20
guessing a meter should show 0ohm resistance if there is still a short, but=
I=20
was not getting a open circuit.=20
Any ideas so I don't have to go through a hand full of fuses next time?=20
Thanks.=20
