Fog light fuse keeps blowin
The 16 A one...and I know I shouldn't but I did put a 25 A fuse in and it hasn't blown yet. I blew 5 fuses in two weeks. I need them in fog.
So is this bad wiring or the bulbs themselves are crudded up and need replacing. Where is the relay anyways, it shouldn't blow the fuse if bad, should it?

You probably have a short in the wiring somewhere.
Take that 25 amp fuse out now or you will burn the wiring up or even worse cause a fire.

Yep, pull each of the fog lights and check the wiring. I'd be willing to bet one of the wires has come undone.

Ok, the others already told you that wasn't a smart thing to do so I'll skip that speech. Just start unhooking things on the circuit and taping off the connectors until the CORRECT fuse quits blowing. Then you will know which part is causing the problem. Please fix the problem so you don't burn up your car.

I'd like to order those cool blue sylvanias, but I have yet to find them in H3 size.
