Hello All,
I have a puzzling situation. A couple of years ago I relayed the
headlights and have enjoyed zero problems related to them until lately. I've
been smelling something hot with the headlights on, and when I feel the fuse
panel, something is very hot. Due to melting of the plastic fuse panell,
I've had to replace the ceramic fuse with the following:

It came with a 30 amp fuse, so that's what I've been running. When I put a
10amp fuse in, it blows.
I have a meter, but this electrical stuff can be a real challenge for me.
What size fuse should I be using, and where should I look for potential
short circuits?
