does anyone know the continuity between the different male connectors(D1,P etc) on the headlight switch particularly when the switch is pulled halfway out to light the parking lights only? The reason is is that I had a painless performance rewiring kit(20120) installed and when I put the switch halfway out-I get a blown fuse
Thank you-Tom
PS-any suggestions to fix this?

One of these should help you. Only thing on in park position is the dash lights and front park and rear tail. The one different item on is the front park lights as they only operate in the park position. I would think you have a short to ground somewhere in the front park lights. Try disconnecting them and see if it blows the fuse.
