"Any mechanics on the forum?"

Well, where to start...

I own a mark 2 Fiesta, and the fuse for my back near side light (not the brake light but the back light that goes on when the headlights go on - hell, don't I sound technical?).

Basically I've replaced the fuse for it 3 times, but the fuse keeps blowing - and I'm suspecting its the wire that's causing the problems, like its touching causing the fuse to blow...

...anyone know how I can find the wire that goes from the fusebox to the back light? I'm at a loss on where it goes from there.

If it sounds like something else, I'm listening =P

Try putting your face into the engine

it would be f = Ma then.

small m would be metres and capital A would be i have no idea.

Dont try and be cocky.

Well if the fuse box is under the dash board by the passanger, it should run just under the passangers seat or just below that door. I think.

Sound advice but I'm not completely impaired when it comes to cars - I just need to unattach the battery (5 minute job) and check out the wire from the fusebox to the back light...I just need some help finding where it goes from, all it probably needs is some electrical tape to keep the wires from touching and shorting the fuse....just a case of finding hte problem.

EDIT: Plus I'm a student, and you know those garages are gonna run up a nice bill for a 10 minute job...

You dont want to start messing around with the electrics in car. It more often then not leads to you doing more damage than good. Take it to a garage & get them to look at it.

...and I'm sure there's some joker that does quantum mechanics but that's not what I need help with =P

Anyone know anything about cars? =P

f = ma

Actually, capitals can be different symbols for different things.

Wow, that's some heavy stuff.

I do maths mechanics.

F = MA

I do mechanics.
