I have a short somewhere in the lights. Everything will be fine until I try to use a blinker. Sometimes it will blink a few times back for each blinker and sometimes as soon as I try to use a blinker the fuse will blow. Any suggestions on how to track the short done?
2007 Yamaha Vstar 650.

Just saw this. First, look for a loose ground. Next check for voltage while turning on the blinker.

Lots of wires in the headlight bucket. Check in there for a rubbed wire

Everything in the headlight area looks good. Now to see if I even have a multimeter and how to use it.
