fitted My Cd Player Last Week, Uprated A Load Of Fuses Cos They Were Blowing, Car Fine For A Week. Pissing Dwn All Weekend Everything Fine. Gets In Car Last Nite And Wipers Wont Work At All. I've Already Uprated The Fuse From A 20amp To A 30amp. No Good. Removed Cd Player And Retried Still No Luck. Any Body Got Wiring Diagrams So I Can Test, Or Anybody Know Wot To Look For.
all Help Will Be Appreciated
cheers Tom

first of all, dont uprate the fuses for windowwipers and stuff ALWAYS use the correct fuse, if its blowing a 20a its doing it for a reason, theres no point putting in a higher rating fuse to hide the problem as there is one.

Trust me, been there done it and it cost me money

i agree with Nyzrox on this one, sounds like you have a short somewhere mate, dont uprate your fuses for an interim fix, get a professional auto electrician on the case to find the problem :thumbs:
