14A horn, turn and reverse fuse blowing every time I reverse

As in the title, my turn signal fuse blows every time I put the Bronco in reverse. Any tips on where to start looking would be greatly appreciated.

Reverse switch to the light sockets.

When you put it in reverse it should turn the lights on. When the lights should turn on is when the short is blowing the fuse. So that shows that all is good up to the reverse light switch. After that something is bad.

Thanks Bowsher, it's strange, only started happening yesterday after I got my hitch mounted and is also intermittent, doesn't blow the fuse every time.

Check around where the hitch was mounted for pinched or chafed wires.
