Blown Fuse Problem, Help
Last year an accident happened in my camaro. I have 2 neon lights underneath the seats, controlled by a switch to turn em on and off.
Somehow I was driving and the wires touched one another (ground + positive) I believe and started to smoke and shut off.
I've been recently trying to play with it, and I cant get them to work anymore. I bought a new switch but that isnt the problem. I never had a fuse in between anything either, so the culprit is lying with the fuse panel.
Basically for power, I conencted the positive wire to my fuse panel (battery). I think a fuse is blown between that fuse panel and the batter itself under the hood, but I dunno where to find it !
If I try hooking up my neon lights right to my fuse panel battery, they DONT come on, so I know its something to do with that.
Any advice!?!?

first off did you verify the lights still work? do you have a multimeter to test for power at the fuse panel? if the supply fuse was blown I think you would have alot of things not working... check the fuses under the hood and in the car.

The lights still work ya. I tested them by hooking the 2 wires up straight up to the battery. I don't have a multi meter, but my dad might.
I have already checked all the fuses under the car and on the fuse panel, everything seems to be ok. Weird...

if there was no fuse in place, or a very high aperage fuse you may have melted some wires. follow the path, a multimeter would really help.
