Hey all I installed a DMH 3" electric cutout about a month ago. I tapped in the accessory plug for 12v power and grounded I believe right near the shifter base somewhere. It has worked fine up until now.

All of a sudden it keeps blowing fuses like nobodies business. I had a size 25 amp fuse in the fuse panel and it blew. I then changed it out for a 30 amp fuse and the motor closes, but does not open. When I press the close button for the cutout, the motor is making noise, but when I press the open button nothing happens and I watch the battery when pressing the switch open and it is drawing a lot more power than it is to close it. It is going well below the 13 line. What is the deal here?

I have not looked at the wiring ran through the car yet. Just looking for opinions first before I go taking it apart.

I bet the power wire on your cutout is shorting out somewhere(exposed).

Check your power wire ASAP

Mine was pinched in the console and blew the fuse.

maybe its the motor going out, causing it to pull to many amps. hopefully something simple though.

Use the cigarette lighter wire to power the cutout, any other wires I saw looked smaller gauge, mine works fine.
