help finally got my saxo back on the road saturday and having problems already...

the fuse for my indicator/lights etc keeps blowing, went again last nite and i changed it and a big puff of some came from my fuse box, too scared to use the car now...

maybe i put a wrong fuse in? but it shouldnt keep blowing anyway, has any one got a pic as to which fuse goes where or any advice i would appreciate it.

well im going to change the fuses all over 2nite and hope that works, but i started her up this morning and everything worked...but why was there smoke lol ?

my dad reckons its because i had a head unit in and removed it and the wires were loose and i didnt tape the ends up, so still live...maybe that was it

must of been a loose wire somewere, if it does it again could be a faulty hazard switch as they complete the connection, flasher relay might be faulty or even a fuse

Well it got me work fine this morning with no blown fuses or smoke lol…..so im assuming unless it happens again, then the loose wires where the cd player was touched each other hence the puff of smoke and blown fuse? Thanks for your help matey
