Hey all have a bus in was intermittently blowing the turn fuse seems only to blow when left turn signal on or switching off the right signal when I hook up my short finder does not indicate a short but for a split second when I first connect it , cannot get the bus to short when wiggling or pulling checked around lights , also pulled steering column covers and checked the normal suspect areas anyone have this issue or better idea where to look ?

The fact that it happens with left signal on or when switching OFF the right signals makes me think switch.

Solved , yea it actually would do it sometimes when switching off so I did put a switch in , but mostly when left on though I ended up finding damaged wire touching bus body near the left front just in front of the washer bottle ....was a little ?? at why my short finder would not pickup on this I guess just barely touching at times would just beep once really quick and say open but when a fuse installed it would blow at times farely quick

That's too weird about the turning off the right side causing it too, but as long as it's fixed, who cares!
