Default High Beams keep blowing

I have a EJ1 with 10000k H.I.D.s... I've had the HIDS for a few months but now all of a sudden the 10A high beam keeps blowing.

Just to see if it would blow, a 15A fuses blows in the same manner.

Do I have a bad harness?

sounds like you have a power wire shorting out some where.

it's a TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE idea to put a higher amp fuse in a lower amp slot. they're rated at that level FOR A VERY GOOD REASON. you could have friend your wiring. i've seen not only entire wiring harnesses go bad but entire wiring in a vehicle go bad because of people doing that "just to see if it would blow."
