Analysing a circuit with a shorted component need specialised electrical test equipment.
The circuit becomes a pure resistance circuit where current and voltage are in phase with each others.
Integrated circuit
It depends on weather it is in a parallel or series circuit. In parallel the entire circuit it is in parallel with is shorted out. In series the total resistance decreases by the amount of the resistor that shorted out. Resistors usually open or change value with use.
when loads are connected in parallel it means that they share common nodes at both the ends i-e voltage across all the loads is the same. when one of the load in such a circuit is shorted i-e its voltage is made zero volts, voltage across the other loads goes to zero because of parallel connection and they gets shorted also.
An open circuit exists when the path for electron flow is interrupted.Sometimes this is part of the circuit design; e.g., a switch to turn a light on or off.Open circuits may also be created unintentionally when a component part of the circuit fails so that it can no longer conduct electrons. A break in the wire connecting components, or a loose connection between wires, or even a broken filament in an incandescent bulb, for example.Electronic circuits may contain components (resistors, capacitors, or integrated circuits, for example) which can fail in a way that creates a break in the electron path.Particularly in an electronic circuit, it's important to be sure that the circuit is actually broken, and not simply shorted to ground. In a truly open circuit, there is no current flow. In a shorted circuit, current may be flowing in part of the circuit, but not through the whole circuit.
A shorted circuit.
Ammeters have a very low resistance, as to not interfere with the circuit they are measuring current in. As such if you connect a very low resistance in parallel, the component is essentially shorted. A great many ammeter fuses have been blown because of this.

If a component is hooked into a live circuit, it is likely that the component itself will be damaged.
In that case, the circuit is shorted, or short-circuited.
In a series circuit, if one component burns out, the circuit will not work because the current flow is interrupted by the burnt-out component. This is because components in a series circuit share the same current.
The circuit becomes a pure resistance circuit where current and voltage are in phase with each others.
Integrated circuit
The component in an electrical circuit that provides resistance is called a resistor.
A blown fuse indicates a shorted circuit somewhere in the system. Could be a shorted power wire to ground, or a shorted componet in the system.
It depends on weather it is in a parallel or series circuit. In parallel the entire circuit it is in parallel with is shorted out. In series the total resistance decreases by the amount of the resistor that shorted out. Resistors usually open or change value with use.
P1432 - Thermostat Heater Control (THTRC) Circuit Failure The Comprehensive component monitor (CCM) monitors the THTRC circuit to the PCM for high and low voltage. If during testing; voltage was to fall below a calibrated limit for a calibrated amount of time the test will fail and set the DTC and MIL. Open or shorted THTRC circuit Open VPWR Open or shorted thermostat assembly Damaged PCM DTC P1432 is a THTRC circuit check. Testing should include wire harness, thermostat heater and PCM.
