My tail lights, cluster lights and parking lights go out. i replace the fuse and it pops it like 2 min into driving my car. i thought it was the wiring harness because my car was so low and it stripped some of the wires but we re-did it and tucked and it didn fix it. does anyone have a wiring diagram so we can check for a short.

thanx

Below is a link to a pdf of the FSM(factory service manual). You can either view it online by clicking the link to the appropriate section or downloading the zip of the entire manual. You need to look at section EL (Electrical System).
