On the way to work this morning, the fuse went for my speedo, but the rev counter and other gauges kept working. Just went and got a replacement fuse, and within seconds it had blown that as well.

Anyone got any ideas why that would happen again? Nothing's plugged into the lighter socket (except the lighter but I never use it) and I've had these clocks in without problems for a few months now.
