Have you had the A/C compressor checked if that is running off that circuit.

Seems logical since a sensor has been changed and the bulbs checked.

Also if there is a fault there then perhaps it's a damaged piece of wiring where it is shorting to the car body.

a/c runs ok the trouble is the fault is intermittent , have checked wiring that i can see and get to.

could it be reverse switch shorting out.

thanks for your reply
