This answer is generic and applies to ALL fuses or circuit breakers. Electrical conductors [wires] are only capable of safely carrying a certain amount of current [usually measured in Amps or milliamps]. If excess current [above the safe amount] is forced through the conductor, then the wire will heat, proportionally to the amount of overcurrent. To protect the wire and its insulation from damage or heating to the point of starting a fire, fuses or circuit breakers are inserted in the circuit [in series]. These overcurrent safety devices are designed and intended to "blow" or trip, shutting off the flow of electrical current, thus preventing catastrophy. When a fuse or circuit breaker continues to function, blow or trip, after replacement or reset, is indicative of excessive current flow, caused by either a short circuit or too much demand from oversized devices [like large add-on aftermarket sound amplifiers for example] added to the circuit. For safety, it is criticalthat when one of these circuit protection devices [fuse or breaker] repeatedly functions, you cease to use [turn on] the switch to that circuit UNTIL a fully qualified auto electrical service technician has accomplished a full trouble shooting procedure, AND CORRECTED [FIXED] THE CAUSEof the fuse blow or breaker trip!!!!!
Which fuse is blowing. You need to be a little more specific so we can help you. the ignition fuse under the hood
If the 1990 Chevy Lumina is blowing the DIS 10 Amp fuse when the ignition is on, check to make sure that all wires coming from this fuse are grounded properly. Also check to make sure the starter is wired properly. There could also be a loose wire in the dash near the ignition.
Usually that means that the fuel pump motor is failing and draws too much current. Whatever you do, don't put an oversized fuse in the circuit. That would be a big mistake and cause great risk of a fire. Just replace the fuel pump.
The AM2 -CODE is a 30amp fuse,looking in my log book it comes under STARTING SYSTEM I'm having problems with mine,it keeps blowing the fuse and the car wont start.Any help would greatly be appreciate, do not know where to start.
then there is a short some where!
You evidently have something shorted to ground. You did not specify as to which fuse you are blowing. Consequently, iI am unable to help you.
report him
It keeps you fit and is fun Please give me trust points
Are there any numbers assigned to the specific fuse slots? I have 3 fuse box diagrams for jeep. You would have to look and compare. Found in Chiltons manual,chassis eleclrical,chapter 6. Schematics provided for entire engine electrical also.
Three possibilities, one the lighter is bad or the wire is grounding and the other is the socket has something in it or broken. My son had put a penny in mine and for the longest it was out of service. Good Luck.
mor vehicle info would help, but blower motor can be shot without blowing fuse
could someone please help me with this
