Question ran into another

I was trying to execute another electrical demon with no luck. Crazy think when I pull the hazard switch I pop the # 11 fuse?

Now my right turn signal works great in the dash I have blinkege and at both front and back lights. But when I turn the signal to the left I get a faint light in the dash for the right tun signal then I blow a fuse at, I believe #8.

Must have a short somwhere on your left lamp circuit. Fuse 11 is for hazard. Fuse 8 shouldn't have anything to do with it, but fuse #5 would. Pull fuse 5 and see if your hazard switch still blows fuse 11.

Just to lend my experience, which may or may not be helpful. As far as I can tell, both hazard lights and signal lights run through the Hazard switch. I was having troubles with signal lights, and after a lot of cleaning grounds, following wires, and examining the Haynes wiring diagrams, I decided to check the Hazard switch. As soon as I touched it, it fell into about 5 pieces. Got a new one on E-bay for $5, and it fixed everything up. It's probably not your problem, but something to check.

Good luck,
