1996 Mustang Gt Turn Signal Fuse Blows

[Frank's96]

Hey guys, ok I'm new to this Forum and want to see if I can get any help with this.. Ok well as my Title says my 96 turn signal fuse blows each time I put it in reverse I don't remember if I saw a thread here that mentions this but I've tried many things... Now one thing I did try this morning is removing the backing up bulbs and it works my fuse doesn't blow anymore.. Now how do I fix it so I can have my car back in normal operating condition ??

Sounds like your wiring to your backup switch is grounding out somewhere. I would start at your switch (mounted on the tranny) and follow the wires back to the backup lights and then to the fusebox. In a rare case the backup switch could be bad.
