I seem to have gotten a gremlin but not sure when it popped up with my work on the truck. This morning (still dark) I discovered parking/running lights, break lights, dash lights, and dome like did not work. I found my "Tail Stop Park Dome" fuse was blown and replaced it. Figured I did something naughty in the last week and did not notice it (since I been test driving in daylight).

A bit later this morning (daylight now) I did my test drive that I needed to do after replacing the fuel pump to carburetor hardline (still no leaks there YAY) but when I pulled in the garage my dome light wasn't coming on (and the other lights of course). Again my "Tail Stop Park Dome" fuse was blown. Ugh!

Replace the fuse again. This time I tried to go through areas I remember mucking around wiggling various wires/harnesses to see if I could get it to blow. Nope. I did two test drives following the same path that forced me to do the same braking/turning/etc. Still didn't blow the fuse. After returning to the garage I did the same wiggling around areas again while in the garage, fuse is holding.

I am bouncing between under the dash (driver side) since I did pull speaker wire across to that side. Then popping to the engine bay and wiggling wires around the battery/passenger headlight. Since there I pulled the battery and tray to replace the LED lamp and fuel vapor canister.

So my question (its safe to assume I introduced this short) is there anything common to this fused orange power run around the battery/passenger headlight and the harness that goes across the radiator? Well, other than actual battery power... I didn't seen any orange being pulled over there.

PS: the biggest suck here is that I lose my breaking lights - that is a big downer. So during my test driving/drives I am keeping my dome light on!
