Let me first start out saying I am new to the forum and what a great forum it is. Ton's of great info
and friendly people. I would like to wish you all happy holidays and a great new year..

Ok, I've been racking my brain trying to figure this out..When I turn my headlights on the instrument panel lights will pulse and then blow the fuse, so I figured it must have been a short in the wire somewhere so I rip the dash apart and trace the wires and find no short.. So then I rip the center consol apart thinking maybe there is a short somewhere there, still nothing so I decide to pull the anti-theft relay plug and that does it the lights stop pulsing and the fuse doesn't blow...

So my question is where to start... Can I leave the anti-theft relay unplugged? Where would I start to troubleshoot this issue. Has anyone had a similar problem like this that care to share there solution?

Welcome to CF!
A Merry and a Happy to you too!
You might try unpluggin' the relay and doin' a Ohms test on each terminal ot the plug.

 

Welcome and the best of the new year to you and all others. I am new here as well and find it an excellent place.You might also want to check your hood switch and door switches, for the alarm,to see if one of themare shorting out.Electrical can be challenging. Good luck

 

Since the alarm relay is what pulses the alarm horn on and off, try looking to see where or how the lites are connected/shorted to the relay.
