About interior lights of car Plymouth Sundance 1992?

i am using plymouth sundance 1992. Actually there was a short in my car.which happens to me to blows my fuse of interior lights of car. so after fuse blows i changed the fuse from 4A to 15A the lights starts working for a while and then again stops working.i checked the fuse.fuse was ok. so can anybody help me that where can be the fault . .Now i already fixed the short. i also checked the bulbs of interior lights are working properly.so where is the fault in my car. .and how can i troubleshoot it?About interior lights of car Plymouth Sundance 1992?When a fuse is set at a certain amperage rating, it is set there to prevent damage to the wiring circuits it's protecting. When a hot wire gets shorted, it will blow the fuse instead of melting wires or the accessories it's protecting. The amperage rating is set to a point that if it goes over a certain amperage, the fuse blows to protect the circuit instead of letting it get too hot and melting down.



By increasing the size of the fuse from 4 amps to 15 amps rather than fix the problem, you allowed the lights to stay on longer than they should have when the short occurred. The problem was still there, but it kept getting hotter and hotter when the wire (or whatever the short was) shorted out again. This heat almost certainly caused something to melt down, whether it's a wire, a switch, a module, maybe even the fuse block itself or whatever. Plus, this could have easily created more than one short.About interior lights of car Plymouth Sundance 1992?There is still a hot wire grounded somewhere in lighting system. Either pinched, or a panel mounting screw went thru it.About interior lights of car Plymouth Sundance 1992?badbill if there is a hot wire grounded he would be blowing fuse he said he is not. read please before you answer. or if you truly believe your answer then stop answering cause your wrong.



This is a tough one but all you can do is start checking wires for an open, you need and ohm meter.About interior lights of car Plymouth Sundance 1992?You will need a wiring diagram and just trace the wire to the fuse to see where the problem is and if you keep running a 15 amp fuse on a 4 amp circuit, that circuit will get hot and just may if not will cause a fire, now as far as you burning leason learned, anyone else in the car gets hurt from you hair brain fuse swap out, will sue the cra-- out of you and you are toast, so fix the car and switch the fuses back.
