    Fuse #6 Keeps Blowing!

    Hey everyone, I'm having an issue with fuse #6 - windshield wipers (and, apparently, turn signals, though not listed on the map. The hazards still work, however.)

    Bought a new trailer the other day. The seller told me that it had the round light connector, but he had a flat 4 conductor, and that he’d patch it in for me before I arrived. In my haste to depart and drive the 3 hours back home, I didn’t pay a whole heck of a lot of attention to what he had so...
