Asked by FordFarms Feb 07, 2019 at 09:02 PM about the 1993 Ford F-150 XLT 4WD Extended Cab LB

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I’ve unhooked the door switches, dome light,
cargo light, & electric mirrors. with the key in
off position and doors closed as soon as i
touch the fuse to the panel i see a spark. it
doesn’t blow, but if i let it sit over night
chances are the odometer and radio will not
work in the morning. resulting in a blown
fuse.

Check the net on how to determine if you have a parasitic draw on the electrical system. You will need a volt meter. You will have to check each fuse circuit to determine where the problem is.
