Default Blowing Fuses

My 95 TA M6 keeps blowing the fuse that controls the fans and the reverse solenoid.I cant figure it out,I have put a 25amp fuse in it but it blew too.It should only have an 10 amp in it.Maybe the fan is going out and overloading it,I dont know.Has anyone else had problems with this fuse? I'm broke and cant really afford a shop. LOST AND SWEATING , IN TEXAS

U possibly have a short to power..... what happens is that soemthing is grounding out on the power side overloading the circut and blowing the fuse. u are gonna have to check your wiring see if something got rubbed thru. I know for sure it is possibly on the 12V supply side of the circut start there.

Don't try to fix blown fuse issues with bigger fuses.
The fuse blows to protect the circuit from excessive current.
It's very likely a short somewhere.

Do you have a multi-meter?
A set of 12ga wires with gator clips helps too.
