Hi All,

New on here so please be gentle with me!

I have a fuse that keeps blowing and is driving me wild!

I am attaching an image of my fusebox diagram to help me explain.

Fuse number 1 services 4 components.

1) horn

2)interior light

3)front headlight flash

4)aux

My question is this - What is "aux"?

All four wires coming from this fuse are the same colour so tracing them in the looms is annoying to say the least!

All help greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Sworn2Drive :)

Auxiliary ? i.e Radio or anything else bolt on afterwards.

I had the same problem with the same fuse, turned out to be a short on the interior light !!
 
3)front headlight flash

That's not front flash, that's rear fog light.

It would be a good idea to make sure the lights are not full of water. As jason says, you're looking for shorts. Is there any particular time that the fuse goes?

E.g. Everytime you sound the horn, or use the interior light etc?
 
No he listed the four things that run through fuse one lol. It's the auxiliary fuse.

Think the wires need tracing. People often put new things onto these wires because they are permanent live wires.

Really you should run an additional wire with 40amp strength and an inline fuse or additional fuse box.

The cause will be something additional that has been added to the vehicle.
 
Use voltmeter in ohm position and put voltmeter between the battery terminal plus and put the black cable off the voltmeter onto red cable etc. then pull one fuse a time until the reading on voltmeter spikes. That is your problem and trace the fault etc
 
But like chunkymunky. It might have too many things running off one wire thus overloading etc. take them off and run new feed off a spare fuse if no fuse avail build a new fuse board etc safer this way
