Landing light blowing fuse

[jmo3789]

I have recently been getting an issue where the landing light is blowing the fuse a few min after turning it on. Few minutes being 2 or 3 min after takeoff or getting in the pattern for landing. It doesn’t matter if it’s on steady or pulse. Then when the fuse goes I get a squealing in the radio when I transmit. Put the new fuse in squealing goes away. All connections seem to be good

What size are the wires going to the lights and how many amps is the fuse??? Maybe you just need a slightly larger fuse if the wires can accept the current.

The wires are ones vans recommend in the manual. The fuse is a 7.5

You may want to try to localize the problem by disconnecting one, or both of the landing lights in the wingtips to determine which is the issue.. or.. if its the wiring going out to the wings that is the problem.
