Well I keep blowing the fans/actr fuse. I have checked the following things, O2 sensor and wires(good), cooling fan motors(replaced), and evap solenoid(disconnected and drove around a bit). Fuse still blew after checking all those items. I also do not have EGR or AIR anymore so those two can't be causing it. I didn't check the reverse lockout solenoid but I can't go in reverse while I'm driving still so I guess it's working. Any ideas as to what can be causing this damn fuse to blow? I would like to have my cooling fans come on.

Forgot to mention I tried that and it blew too.

Ok, what ever you do, Don't use the "advice" of a higher amp fuse. They are rated to a specific amperage for a reason. Don't over ride that.



Your going to need to find everything that fuse feeds. I don't have my power dis diagrams here, but I will try and find them. I know you say that the 02 wires are ok, but if you have headers check again. Time and time again I have see them melt and short. Unplug everything on that circuit and double check it all. Install a new fuse. Then one by one start plugging components in untill the fuse blows.

OMG Harlan,finally someone agrees and knows not to put a higher rated fuse in an accessory.
as stated you have to find out what is cxausing the fuse to blow,something is being shorted to ground,i had a similar situation.the fan would cycle and the fuse would pop traced it back to the fan motor.i thought it may be the relay so i disconnected the fan first and allowed it to cycle with a test light on and the light came on fuse did not blow as soon as i reconnected the fan it blew again.

Well I had ran out of 10's so I put a 15 in it for a temp purpose and it blew within a few minutes. I have to have the car running for the fuse to blow. I checked the O2 wires up too the heads and the wires are fine. That's from a post made by shoebox.
