Questions about my truck "electrical"
I bought this truck in October and Had my first problem with it last week. My headlight went out. While diagnosing this problem I found that a lot of my fuses were over rated in the fuse box. Two of them I don't think I need can you guys help?
Fuse E i show to be for Quad lamps-how do I know if I have this?
Fuse F is basically all the park/running lamps correct?
Fuse G is security and/or Daytime Running Lamps, Do I have either of these?
Fuse I Tranny control relay. I know I have it does it do anything else?
So I don't think i need Fuse E or G what do you guys think?
Also over rated in the cab fuse box were
Fuse 6 Wipers?
Fuse 12 all internal cab lights?
I know if the fuses start to blow I have a intermittent short I need to find, but I'll get to that when it happens
By the way, I got the headlight going. and already put in the correct fuses. Let me know if you need any more info

I do not have the fuse location / rating , but would suggest that you do not over rate any of the fuses / but leave the stock rating in all .
Do you have an owners manual ?
If not go to the junk yard and look through all the trucks like yours , then you can see all the location info .
If you are going to keep this truck , then get " only the factory manual " , to get the most info / correct info .
Nothing else is worth buying .
You can get both the hard copy & CD from Geno's Garage .
My link is not the home page .

As stated I have already switched back to the stock fuses, and two days so far with rain without any blowing I was just trying to find out if I needed the quad lamp fuse or the security/drl fuse. I know now i do not need the quad lamp fuse but I know I have a security relay. Does that mean I have a security system?
