Fuse keep popping
Hey everyone,
Has anyone here ever had fuse #9 the backup lights, side mirrors and rear wiper blow. When I turn the key to the on position the fuse blows. I’ve checked the the mirror wires from the driver door and the center console and nothing is touching. I’m hoping someone here can help me.

Get a wiring diagram. If you can find the individual wires that run from near the fuse box to each of the components (back up lights, side mirrors, wiper), connect an ohm meter to each end and see if the circuit is opened of closed when each end of the wire is disconnected. If you get resistance in one of the lines, that should be the culprit.
You could also try disconnecting the wires at the backup lights, the mirrors, and the wipers (to break the circuits). Assuming the fuse doesn't blow when all three components are disconnected, start reconnecting each one individually. The fuse should blow when you plug in the component on the faulty line.
