blown fuses
I'm having the turn signal fuse blow every once in a while. This doesnt happen ONLY when I have the signal on..it happens at random times. so far..3 times in 2 days. Running lights are still on, just the turn/hazard lights don't work. Any ideas???????????????

Check both your front and rear signal plugs and harnesses.....check for chaffing on the wiring...that could possibly be your problem.

Thanks. I was just wondering...why is it taking so long to blow? I'll check the wiring tomorrow.

I think some road grit got in one of those windshield eyeballs causing tearing that is shorting out the blink modulator for that eye .
