1997 Chevy Tahoe (blowing fuse tail lights)
 
One bulb (turn signal rear)went out so of course I replaced both at
the same time......go to turn on the lighted dash and the fuse blows
????????????????????????????????????????

Are both rated at the same wattage as the ones that came out? I got a
replacement bulb for my landy and noticed too late that the replacement was
6w and the original 5w.

Regards
Stephen

Short in the rear harness around one of the lights. Pull them and see
which one has the wire pinched between the housing and the box.

Let me guess some of those clear lens lights which are being recalled
since in many areas they are illegal and do not meet federal standards
for light color and output.
