Check reverse light fuse issue

Rear drivers side tail/brake light fuse(15) keeps tripping on 2007 911 Porsche Carrera S. Have tried changing and swapping same fuses with no success.

Regards,
Tom Smith

Not knowing the late cars but if the 2back up light connection on trans touch because they are not plugged into trans in early car it can blow fuse

This is a new problem RSBob. Car has been a great. Fuse blows as soon as car key is turned on.

Swapping in another fuse because a fuse is blown will only waste fuses. The problem won't go away just because the fuse has been replaced. Get a wiring diagram, trace the circuit, and repair the short that's causing the problem. It could be that another electrical consumer is causing the problem. What else is on the circuit?
