My drivers side tail light fuse keeps blowing (fuse#35 I believe)...all the bulbs are new. Does anyone know of any trouble spots in the system that I should check first before I start tearing up the Jeep to find bad wires/connections?

Does it have a trailer lights connector?

Mine did , '02 Sport -- got the vehicle used at 13,000 miles.

It started blowing fuses. Not sure now which one.

Disconnected and removed a box inside the left tail light to cure it.

I had a cheap uhaul one at first and it finally shorted out and caused the left side to go, bought a new one, not from U haul and havent had a problem in over 70,000 miles, so I would say that is your problem! :lol:

Check your front turn signal. Mine had h2o in it that fried the socket. The bulb still worked on one circuit, but shorted out on the other.
