Hmm, it could be because of one of your mods...? I'm not sure why it would be, but it could be a possibility cause G35's are 3$%@$%^ like that.

Thanks in advance.
I'd look at the blinker mod first. Sounds like it is shorting there. What was the most recent mod you did when the fuse starting blowing? Did everything work for awhile before they blew?

Ended up being the inverter to the right CCFL tubing. Although it has been sometime since the install, I guess the cold weather has caused the inverter to draw more energy than the 10amp parking wiring can handle (causing the fuse to blow).

If you are interested in more info on what happened (and the chronology of my problem), see my original post:

What about the one behind the battery? Are the interior dash lights out?

Something to help you guys, I tried changing my heated seats light to an LED and my taillight/radio lights went out. Everytime I changed my taillight fuse, it blew immediately. So i disconnected my heated seats and tried a new fuse and it worked.

See if the latest mod you did could be causing a short. If it is, disconnect it and plug in a new fuse.

Good luck!

driving with some Z boys today...while idling I tried my heated seat button. Lights in my 04 radio went out. Buddy behind said my running lights weren't working. Brake lights/headlights, cluster, still worked. Sounds like I get to find the third fuse box.

Just completed a 6mt swap. May take my old heated seat buttons from my original auto center console and swap them buttons in just to be safe.
