Turn signal went out OK not problem, the bulb was melted into the housing, OK screw me like that after all it is only a vette. New housing and replaced socket OK no problem.
Look how hot these got .

I have all connections properly done and now I have headlights that don't close. No dash lights, or foglights. If that litttle bulb is a running light I can't get it to come on if my life depended on it.
Turn signal lever is new.
Checked most of the fuses, not all of them, the ones I thought would affect this situation. Can someone please help me, I am just beside myself with this as I have done nothing to cause these problems.

For all that amount of stuff to go wrong at the same time a little common sense tells you it just might be fuse related and sure enough, after the engine box fuses I checked the passsenger floor board fuses and that's where it was. We're all good to go now, thanks for all the input.
