Boxster S Turn Signals
Decided to upgrade to LED on my 02 Boxster S with HID lights. Wondering if there dis circuit overload. Lost turn signals & repeatedly blowing Hazard fuse. went from 15 amp to 25 fuse to stop it but no joy on turn signals front or rear. Hazards do work though. I replaced side markers, front parking lights & license plate with LED, & front fog lights with halogen hyper white. Think its overload? or relay?

Well, what are the wattages of the bulbs you pulled out, and what are the wattages of the bulbs you put in? Going from incandescents to LEDs, you should consume way less power. Blowing a 15A fuse is not a good thing (and changing it to a 25A is just going to help you to fry your wiring harness).
I would start by putting everything back to stock. Replace one bult at a time until you find the one which causes the problem - likely as not, you have a defective LED on your hands and it is presenting as a direct short. If you can run the LEDs on the bench, all the better (at least it will be quicker).
