I picked up a toyota solara for cheap, and noticed the taillights weren't working... The brake lights are working though. I replaced the taillight relay and as soon as i replace the fuse it blows, and the tail bulbs blow too.

I'm thinking i should just rewire the damn things run the power to the headlight switch or something... other than that i dont have that many ideas... does anybody know how to track down a short in a matter of minutes without tearing a car apart?
