Recently a motorcyclist sitting next to me in traffic told me my taillights are out, and sure as **** they are. The fuse was blown. so i replaced it,blew as soon as i turned the lights on.

-Blows when running lights are turned on.
-DOESN'T blow when i hit the brakes with the running or headlights off (but no brake lights)
-blinkers,hazards,reverse all work fine.


Im thinking a short,so i immediately checked where i spliced my 3rd brake light in, unplugged it and tried again. Same results. Halp!!!
