Default Electrical problem need some help

Everything worked lasted season as it was tested then my clutch blew and the car sat.Now here is my problem took the car with the new clutch it starts to spray and then pops the fuse changed the relay and fuse checked all the wireing is hooked up.The only thing i did over the winter was to wire in another noid.So i thought maybe it was drawing to much power so i took it out and tried again you can feel it hit and then it stops check the fuse and its blown.I have a short but where to start.i'm about to rewire the hole thing

Exactly, sounds like the fuse might be too small for the new load.

If the kit is not wired up with a RELAY, then I suggest a rewire. If you wired it up w/relay and added another noid then you need to check your wiring something does not sound right.

BLTFEDSS, doesnt sound like there is a relay, which you really should be using one I am sure you know, if you are forgive my comment, just didnt see it in your description.
So, if you did not add anything else to that fuse path, I would start with the wiring from the Relay (or switch) to the noid, it may have made contact with the firewall as it passes thru, happened on my car. If you added something to that fuse circuit, get it on a separate line. I would think that the issue will be between the power source and noid, that being either the relay or the manual switch used to open the noid. GL

Its a 25amp fuse and there is a relay a 40amp changed both so i guess i'm going to try and check continuitiey[spelling] between my window switch and noid to wot switch then just rewire the whole thing.O and i pulled the other noid but when i rewire it should run a separate relay for that noid

Another relay, well that depends on your total new amp load. If they are smallish lower ampers then you can use the 40amp relay, I have doubled up many times.

What size solenoids are you running?

Some noids draw 20A each, which is why I'm asking.
