G35 headlight help!!

Hey everyone ive got a 2003 g35 5at, i replaced all of the bulbs for the headlights the top hb5's and the bottom h1's. None of my lights are working except the side marker lights on the front bumper. My 15a fuse keeps popping for the "H/L LO-RH" Ive replaced the fuse a few times even at 20a it does the same thing. Ive looked for shorts in the wiring and have found nothing. Anybody have a similiar issue that was resolved? Thank you in advance.

Also a buddy of mine had the test light connected to the positive on the battery and was checking the wiring for the lights, idk if that could have done something to it as well.

Check your grounds, sounds like you have a short.

Front and rear cameras, tire pressure for all four tires can display on screen,folding side view mir
Put the original bulbs back & see if the fuse still blows

Will the stock ballast support the replacement bulbs

Im really in a rush to get these to work i work 2nd shift and cant go to work with no headlights. I couldnt find the loose ground so i hooked the lights up through a ground on my battery and the positive in with one of the working heaflight fuses. Is this going to **** my car up or should it be fine until i have someone take a good look at it?

If you directly wire your headlights from the ballast to the battery with a 15amp fuse on the positive side you could figure out if the wiring is the problem, yes. You would just need a switch to turn it on and off otherwise lights are always on .
