Fuses That "Blow" Repeatedly
Without being able to "hands on" troubleshoot the circuit served by the repeatedly blowing fuse, none of us can identify the specific defect which is causing your problem.
Therefore, the following generic answer can be applied to any electrical circuit, whether in a vehicle, or in a building, or whether alternating current [AC] or direct current [DC].
Fuses [and Circuit Breakers] are safety devices designed and installed in electrical circuits TO PROTECT the conductors [wires] and other components from short circuit conditions and/or overload conditions which cause an extremely large flow of electrical current [measured in Amperes], which causes overheating of the conductors that results in damage to the insulation and the conductors.
And in a worst case scenario, the probability of a FIRE which could destroy the vehicle, house, or other structure in which the circuit is located.
When a fuse or Circuit Breaker [and replacement fuses, or repeatedly "tripping" Circuit Breakers] "blow," especially if it happens repeatedly, is an indication of an UNSAFE CONDITION in that circuit, usually a short.
The fuse or circuit breaker is doing what it was designed, intended, and installed to do, that is to protect the conductors and components of the circuit which it serves.
The proper "fix" for this issue is for a qualified technician, who knows what he or she is doing, to troubleshoot the involved circuit, find and identify the defect, and make proper repair [s], BEFORE replacing the fuse again [with the properly sized fuse or before resetting a circuit breaker].
Some ignorant few people will suggest installing a larger fuse or breaker to solve the problem, BUT that will only increase the hazard, not correct it.
Do not follow "bad" advice by installing a larger fuse in a misguided attempt to correct the problem. To install an oversized fuse would almost guarantee damage to the wiring and the probability of an electrical system fire.
The headlights of a Ford Windstar may have problems going on if they are burnt out or if there is a wiring problem. Blowing a headlight fuse will also lead to both lights not working.
The fuse for the headlights on a 1998 Ford Taurus is found in the engine compartment fuse box. The fuse will be in slot 22.
Fuse # 16 ( 15 amp )
yes, but bet on a short in your wiring.
Which fuse is blowing. You need to be a little more specific so we can help you. the ignition fuse under the hood
i believe the relay is on the drivers side behind the headlightby the inside of the fender in front of the fuse box there should be a bunch of wires there. at least that's where mine was on my 95 aspire. you can turn your headlights on and pull the fuse for your headlights and puit it back in and it should still click and just keep doing that until u find it. but im sure its right in front of the fuse box under your hood(right behind the driver headlight) i was working on mine today.
The fuse box is below the steering wheel beside the hood release.
2006 Ford Focus rear defroster keeps blowing the fuse immediately after replacement
you need to replace the fuse for the headlights.
According the Owners Manual page 137, fuse #'s 19 & 21 in the fusebox that is in the *engine compartment* cover the headlights.See "Related Questions" below for more
well are they getting paid for blowing?
Your dash light fuse is blown.
