I have a 1900 XJ Limited. I don't know if there are engine options so for the sake of calirty, it has a 4.oL. I was just notified (by the local PD) that my running lights were not working. I went to check it out tonight and found a blown fuse (15A in a 10 A circuit). I swapped another 15A for reasons that can be discussed later which promptly blew. Makes sense. So, since the Chiltons I have shows the circuit as a 20A curcuit, I plopped in another 20A, midly concerned about excessive current draw on the circuit. That didn't prove to be a problem. The 20 A fuse blew just as quickly as the 15A. So, after contemplating the issue, I resorted to the fail safe rule. I went back to where I was working on it last and looked for the items I had touched. I was changing speakers in the lift gate and while doing so noticed a barrell plug (blue in color) that was disconnected. I thought that I had knocked it loose so I plugged it in. Come to find out, that was causing excessive draw on the parking, tail light circuit causing the fuse in the block to blow. Does anyone know what that barrell plug does (other than blow my fuses)?
