Re: Keep blowing same bulb

It appears that you have a wire reversed on the lampholders and it is using the filament of the lamp that blows as a conductor to continue power to the rest of the lamps that go out when that lamp fails. Check your wiring at that lamp and the first lamp that goes out. Did you change the lampholder with the starter end? If so, you probably got the wires reversed at that point. It matters on a lampholder with an integral starter holder.
