02 Sunfire blows ext lights fuse

[greasemonkey54]

I have an 02 sunfire 4 door that is kicking my butt. A few months ago the exterior lights fuse blew killing the parking and running and dash lights. I replaced the fuse then a few weeks later it happened again. I googled it and found a lot of people saying to replace the turn signal switch. I replaced that and it was fine for a little while but the fuse blew again. Now im stumped. What should i check next? Has anyone had this issue?

You have to determine which circuit has the short. The problem is if the short is not always present it will be difficult. There was a recall at one point for the wireharness going across the radiator area. Check all the wire harness connections at the exterior lights and check the bulb sockets for signs of corrosion.
