Hey y'all, I bought an Aris style light from TC Bros and it looks good but when I go to wire it up it consistently pops my fuse. I moved up to 25A and still as soon as I turned the ignition on *POP*. I know that fuse is for all the lights but I wired in an LED flood to my high beam and it wasn't tripping anything. I've got a gypsy curse when it comes to electrical thing, or I'm just a dumb ass or both, so forgive me if there is some obvious thing I fucked up.
The current set up is the white soldered to the hot from the LED and the ground and white not connected. When I tested the LED by just hand tying the grounds together everything went great. Then I tried to do just the headlight, *POP*. Then headlight with the LED grounded in as well *POP*. (it may be clear now that I'm an idiot with electrical) Go to auto store get 25A minis, rinse, repeat.
I've just cobbled the LED for a just in case light but still have some work to do before I can get on the road this weekend. If anyone out there knows what the fuck I'm doing wrong please enlighten me. Thanks in advance
Here is a photo of the lights right now.
