For any fuse to blow out you have a short somewhere. A short is when a hot wire touches the body or some other ground.
Short in the wiring or the radio itself.
A fuse usually blows when there is a short. It's possible you have a short in the wiring someplace.
Have the same problem with '95 Integra; horn and stop light fuse goes repeatedly Checking the brake lights sockets wiring, hoping its there then the switch on the brake pedal then (groan) start looking at the internal wiring
What would cause your fuse to blow when you turn on your lights on your 1993 mazda 323 the fuse to the tail lights on dash lights blow?
check the electronic fuel pump harness for shorts at connector ends
Not necessarily. It can blow because the circuit was overloaded and pulling too much current. That would cause the fuse to overheat and blow.
You cannot because a five amp fuse would blow because the original fuse was seven point five. and a ten amp fuse would not blow quick enough to save or even be safe to use it in whatever you are using it for.
i just changed my fuel pump and it has not blown the fuse so i would say that it can cause the fuse to blow
An Electrical Short Cut somewhere would cause it to blow the fuse. A pinch wire would ground the system, and cause a shortcut.
Fuses are designed to blow when an overload or short circuit condition exists on the circuit in which they are installed. This is a safety device intended to protecth the wire[s] from overheat damage, or causing a fire. The "fix" for fuses which blow repeatedly is to FIND THE FAULT in the circuit, REPAIR the fault, and ONLY THEN reinstall a new fuse, which should then NOT blow out.

It does NOT matter that the fuse which keeps "burning out" is in a 1990 IsuzuTrooper!!!!!!!!!! This question, and ALL others like it, should be worded the SAME: WHY DOES A FUSE BURN OUT? A fuse is a FUSE, and it doesn't matter whether it's in a toy, a particular vehicle, or a house. IF an electrical circuit REPEATEDLY causes fuses to "blow out", that is a POSITIVE indication that something is VERY WRONG, probably a SHORT SOMEWHERE in the circuit. By purpose and design, it it not 'normal' for fuses to burn / blow out, and when that happens, the occurence is the result of something gone wrong, either a short, or an overload condition. When the fuse burns out, it is doing what it was supposed to do. By burning out, it stops the flow of electrical current in the circuit wiring, thus preventing serious damage and/or a fire! When a fuse burns out, the fuse is NOT the problem, and the proper "fix" IS NOT the simple replacement of the fuse. The blown fuse is an INDICATOR of a serious problem, a short or overload, which MUST BE CORRECTED BEFORE replacing the fuse. The proper fix is to: [1] FIND the FAULT in the wiring circuit which is CAUSING the fuse to blow. [2] REPAIR OR CORRECT THE FAULT. [3] THEN replace the buned out fuse.
