driving home late one night last weekwith only one head light. the left one burnt out two days before this happened. i drive over a railroad crossing then the right one goes. first response " OH F**K". i drove home going 25mph with my hazard blinkers on. luckily i was only 2 blocks from my apartment. check it out in the morning blew the head fuse. replaced it headlights went down. replaced bulbs. went to go to turn on my highs. burnt the head fuse again. WTF. went back into auto store bought another fuse. havent tried it again. what could be wrong? the lights work just not the highs.

Stop putting in new fuses and check the wiring for any breaks first.

havent had time to completly look over the wires for breaks. could that be the only thing wrong?

if your fuses are burning up, that means your headlight system is running more current than it can control (fuses are in place so your whole car doesn't go up in flames). Usually that means there's a short circuit somewhere or maybe your headlights are drawing too high a current.

well if it blew as your were rolling over bumpy rail road tracks then i would guess a wire got pinched or touched ground somewhere.
