So,i'll do cliffnotes to save everyone some time.

-Took out cluster
-Took out washer fluid bottle (cut wired to plug on bottle)
-Get in car
-Close door,cluster lights,taillights,corner lights,side markers go out.
-Drivers side headlights are dim and do not have high beam,passenger side is find on the headlight but side marker and corner do not get power
-Found fuse 32 under hood is blowing repeaditively. 15a
- No matter what fuse i put in,it blows it instantly.
- Fuse 32 controls taillights,corners(side markers),and cluster lights
-(headlights SHOULDN'T be involved with this fuse)
- Check cluster harness,looks good.
- Disconnect side markers and resplice corner wires together,didn't change anything.
-Its not the side markers,its not the cluster.
- Re attatch plug from washer tank.
- Side markers work temporarily,then go dim,then go out and will not come back on.


At this point,i'm stumped.I traced everything i know to and have went through my options.Any help will be greatly appriciated.

If it keeps blowing, there is a short somewhere. Something is wrong in the wiring.

I've looked everywhere i could think of,nothing is touching and all grounds look ok.Everything coming into the fuse box looks fine also.

Keep looking. Look for corrosion, loose connections, melted wire shrouding/touching wires.

did you take any of the ground distribution blocks off and forget to put it back on? there would be one located near the washer bottle

DURHUR

Its a possibility.I was unaware that existed there.

What does it look like?Exactly where is it?

Save yourself some time pull the dash and rewire the whole chassis and underdash harness from a wrecked accord. Make sure you take the clusterz from the donor vehicle as well.

why did you take the cluster out? did you swap it or something?
