Short Advise Please (1 Viewer)

[audaciousduo]

So mechanical, Auto body and just about everything else vehicle related I'm comfortable with. Electrical problems are my Achilles heal. I've got a ground short in my 1982 BJ42 where my dash and running lights are not working. Replacing the fuse leads to buying a new fuse immediately so there is obviously a ground short. This came on suddenly and it has been very wet here with lots of standing water on the road. Anyone have a similar issue they resolved or advise as to where to start?

Thanks

Dave

Which fuse?

Is it this one?

Start by pulling all affected light bulbs.
Then replace one bulb at a time, the offending short will rear it's ugly head...fix when found by looking for the obvious before having to decipher the EWD.

And checking connections for water/corrosion
