Cab light wiring help
I just got finished install my lights and wiring them up. Before I put the dash cover back on, I flipped the switch to check it was working... and it did. Buttoned up the headliner and put the dash cover on.... I've never seen fuses blow so fast before. I pulled the switch out to make sure nothing was rubbing behind and one of the connectors got a little bent. replaced it and re-positioned the switch, still blowing fuses.
I checked the wiring, I didn't see any splits anywhere.
How I wired it:
Soldered all the grounds to one and grounded to the roof along with the switch ground. Soldered all the positive wires and ran to the switch. For power, I ran a wire to an empty slot on the fuse box on the dash (did this instead of wiring to the light switch because I didn't want to put any more load on the switch).
Any tips on something to check for would be great, I'm stumped.
