my parking lights went out!!!
I check the fuse over and over each time it blew the next fuse I put in it........Is this one of the common problems of 2nd gens? If so is there an easy fix cause I have no idea where the short would be... please help I have to drive with my emergency lights on at night.............

If you don't already have this fixed....
I'm not familiar with the circuitry, but.....
Try taking out all the bulbs, replace the fuse. If it doesn't blow, replace the bulbs one at a time (the lights off when putting in the bulb). If they aren't all wired in series, this will work, and could help you identify where the short might be.
You could also try a slightly higher rated fuse, in the event that the new bulbs draw more current, but this could make matters worse if it is in fact a short.
