Sidelight problem.

Hi men,

The sidelights on my D3 keeps tripping the fuse on the passenger side, I’ve looked for any bare wires that might have caused this but can’t see any either behind the head light or rear light. Any ideas?

That’s the first thing I checked, it’s all clear and well insulated.

Checked numberplate lights and wiring? They are on the passenger side sidelight circuit if I remember right.
