Supid Car Problems... AGAIN!

Stupid Stupid car! I am getting so frustrated with it! I showed my car love and support yesterday when I washed it for the first time in over a year (yes I know that is sick and wrong, but that is just how I am!), and even cleaned it out top to bottom last week! Well anyways, last night I was driving back from Santaquin, where my family was having a Super Bowl get together, and I thought everything was fine, except for when my fuse blew around American Fork, AGAIN!

I have a fuse that allows me to have dashboard lights (trust me, it is hard to see at night, and know your speed!) and my park lights in the back! Thankfully one of my uncles was with his family a few miles behind me, but SERIOUSLY! I am so sick and tired of car problems! We then couldn’t find the fuse that it was, since when it happened about a month ago, I wasn’t the one that fixed it! We gave up after so long (the way my fuse box sits, it under my steering wheel and there is not enough space between them to pull and my pliers where too big!), and they followed me around the mountain to my house.

It took me about an hour to find it, I tried using tweezers, a flat head screw driver and nothing was grasping it or loosening it up so I could grab it! I was so frustrated that I finally went up to my room and started digging through boxes to find if I had needle nose pliers. Thankfully my mom gave me a bead kit years ago that I will never use, and there where a pair in there! Thank you lifesaver! So I was able to fix it by myself after all last night, and I was feeling good about myself and thought that I could do almost anything, until the morning…

I was running late this morning, and as I raced out to my car, I was upset when I had to scrape my windows! I got in the car, and put it into reverse, and then the fuse blew again! So I pulled into the driveway and fixed it, again! As I pulled out of the driveway for the second time, it blew once more! I had run out of #10 fuses, so I stopped by Macy’s a local family owned grocery store. They did not have a box of just #10, but I ended up buying an assortment. It looked there was more than one, but I was wrong! I paid almost $4 for 1 fuse (I may use the other some day, but not today!), and when I went to go fix it, it blew for a 3rd time this morning! By now I was late to work, and I said forget it, and just drove. Thankfully the sun is coming out more so in the mornings again, so it was too dangerous. I have to figure out what it is going on, and I am going insane now! This happened once before with my BMW, and when we put in a larger fuse it stopped. Hopefully that will help, if not I want to call it quits!
