Hey guys, I've been searching and searching with no luck

My 2009 Adrenalin, the #22 Brake Light / Turn Signal Fuse keeps blowing.

Drove it to work and when I parked I noticed the display say Check LF / Check RR.

I tested and the brake lights nor the turn signals dont work, and this cause the brake switch to not let me take it out of park. Thought I was stuck in the parking lot at work. Removed the console around the shifter/cup holders and manually pushed in the pin and drove home with no brake lights.

This morning...checked the fuse (#22) and it was blown...So I put another one in and it worked long enough to shift out of park but blew right after. Have gone through 3 fuses now.

Any ideas on the root cause? On going issue?

Thanks everyone
 






check your bulbs. a filament probably broke and shorted causing the bulb to draw a lot more current which is blowing the fuse...
 






Mine has been doing this odd thing where it says a RR light is out and it blinks fast but it isn't. The other day it did go out but then came back. The second occurrence might be directly bulb related.
