Icon3 stupid question

but going to ask it any ways. if i put a 10 amp fuse in for my turnsingals it blows, if i put a 20amp in it will work, but when i turn my left turnsingal on it almost doesnt work. but the right turnsingal is fine works like it should. and if i turn my flashers on the fuse for it just blows...

what in the world is going on with this... im lost

Sounds like you have a short some where or crossed wires with your left signal. Check your harness. It could also be inside the switch. Try swapping a switch out with a friends.

Don't go putting larger fuses in, it will cause a fire.

Fix the short DO NOT use a bigger fuse because you may encounter bigger problems in the future.

yea i just tryed the bigger fuse to try and find the problem with out blowing the fuses, but i do know the black fuse block thing, on the fuse boxes for the turnsingals, it blow once, got a knew one, worked for about 10mins like it should then the lights started doing it again. also, when the left turnsingal on the head lights dash lights, will all blink with the turnsingal if it doesnt work right.
