I put a fuses in for the taillights and as soon as I hit the brake pedal, I blow a fuse. Can someone help or at least point me in the direction of a wiring diagram? I'm not very good with electrical stuff so I need some help in english if you know what I mean. The last owner said that the taillights would work until he hit the brakes while turning, then the fuse would blow. Now it just blows when I hit the brakes, even if I'm not turning at all. I know that I'm probably being too vague, but hopefully someone out there has had the same kind of problem. Any help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated. Thanx!!!

inside your left frame rail there should be four wires together that operate your rear lights (much like a boat trailers wiring) these wires are bad for rubbing and corroding resulting in shorts and subsequent blown fuses//if this is not the problem you need to check the sockets for rust or corrosion/(first check 1157 bulbs in rear and make sure filaments aren't touching inside of bulb) hope this helps!

Sounds like you have a short in the wiring. Check the wiring from the tail lights to See if there are any cuts or abrasion touching the body of the car.
