Default #10 fuse keeps burning out

So my car just recently started doing this it's a ef sedan but some times when I'm driving my fuse just burns out if I use the turn signal a few times before I usually just carry spares but I'm tired of it would anyone know why it keeps doing that?

You have a short somewhere in your system. If you blow fuse 10 and your head lights still work, that shows that your passing over the fuse and getting power to the headlights. I would check the wiring for sure. It will not be an easy fix. Something is bare and shorting out.

Yeah what he said.....

If it was me, I would pull fuses one by one until it lost power. I don't have the manual in front of me, but I think #10 is for drivers low beam. So if that is the case and the light still works with the fuse out, then it's shorted to power somewhere. Most likely the headlight/combination switch.

Yeah, it's one of the low beams. I checked my fuse panel in the car.
