I have tested all the wiring coming into the column and it all shows good voltage, with nothing lacking voltage. I thought I had a short in the column and went through all the wiring, replaced the blinker switch (it was broken), and now I'm basically back to square one. Using the column switch for the blinkers/ hazards blows the 15 AMP fuse. Using the brakes blows the fuse. I pulled the brake switch off and it no longer blows the fuse when using the brakes. I disconnected the blinker switch in the column and am running 2 custom wired switches for the blinkers. My custom switches run just fine, without blowing the fuse or the Relay.
I have checked voltage at the lights, and the plugs leading to the lights (on the wiring), everything seems okay back there. Bulbs are good, neither of them are blown. Blinkers/ Hazards work just fine as do the running lights.
Brake lights were also working intermittently when they didn't immediately blow the fuse out, but usually just the right side would work, not the left. Adjusting the column switch a tiny bit with the breaks applied produced results one time (left and right working), and again, the fuse blew out.
Any help, or advice on this issue would be appreciated. Or anyone with similar problems. Also, I am having trouble locating wiring diagrams for my particular year truck, or what I find preferable, a listing of the wires and their colors and what they go to.
I have tried another Bronco forum with poor results, and a not so helpful reply. I've ran through the forums here and it seems pretty nice, though I couldn't find anything for this particular issue.
