Car blowing fuse#9 (guages fuse)??? My car starting blowing fuse # 9 marked guages as fast as I can replace them. I recently wired a nitrous kit and warmer but the car has ran fine in the 5-6 times after I used it right up until today. When I unhook the n20 stuff it still blows the fuses. It is a 10amp fuse and as soon as I turn the key ahed it pops. Any thoughts?

A warmer draws alot of current!! pretty much anything that requires electrical heating will draw LOTS of current.
But im banking on you not connecting somthing correctly, this is usually the case. Go through what you have connected and be sure you have sufficient current draw capability of each wire you tapped into...
Dont run everything off a 22+awg wire!!

Thanks for the info! The only thing that puzzles me is that with the power for the heater and wet kit disconnected last night the problem would still happen. I would put a new fuse in and as soon as I would turn the key ahead I would see the cluster light for a second and then the fuse would pop?
Someone suggested the headlight switch may be gone?
Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks
