Default No brake lights.

No brake lights. Dude in power distribution box blows soon as I touch the pedal. New fuse don’t touch the pedal then my turn signals and everything works. Instant I touch the brake pedal it blows. Found a wire under by the clutch to be showing bare wire. Cut it out ( that was a lot of fun) and replaced still does it. Anyone had this problem? That’s the only fuse it blows thanks.

Keep looking. If it is blowing as soon as you touch the pedal then you have a dead short to ground somewhere right there.

So far I found a few wires. Fixed them or replaced them. Disconnected the rear tail lights to eliminate that. Still fuse still blows.
