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.

What diretions does the tail of a comet point?

A comet's "tail" points away from the Sun. Moving away from the Sun, that means that the comet is moving "tail-first" through space. This is because the comet's tail is actually just wisps of gas and dust melting out of the "nucleus" or head of the comet. The light of the Sun actually has a pressure, and this solar pressure blows the dusty gas away from the comet itself. It is this dusty gas reflecting the Sun's light that we see.


How do you change the rear tail lights on a 1995 Saturn SL Can you just change the individual light bulbs or do you have to replace the whole assembly?

From inside the trunk, pull away the felt trunk liner to expose the tail light assembly. Turn the socket COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to pop it out of the tail light assembly.

The Tail light assembly is mounted by two Philips head screws located near the boot rubber, take them out and slide the tail light assembly away from the center of the car. Then Bob's your Auntie.


What pushes particles in a comets tail?

The pressure of the sun's light shining on the wispy gasses vaporizing from the comet's head push the tail of the comet away from the sun. While it looks like the "tail" of the comet is trailing behind, the tail always points away from the Sun. So after the comet's perihelion (the closest approach to the Sun) the "tail" is actually LEADING the comet!


Does a comet tail always face away from the sun?

Yes it does. The tail is formed from the cosmic 'wind' hitting the comet as it comes close to the Sun. Since the cosmic wind is always blowing away from the Sun's surface - the comet's tail will always stream away from the Sun.


Why does a comet's tail always stream from the sun?

Both of the comet tails are pushed away by the light and solar wind that is always streaming out of the Sun. This means the tails always point away from the Sun. The dust tail may curve a bit, but the plasma tail points directly away, so that the two tails may seem to form a "V".

How do you take off the tail light cover of 2003 Ford Focus SE?

You don't, you change the bulb from inside the luggage area. To replace a broken red plastic tail light cover on a 2003 Ford Focus SE, open the trunk of the car.

Remove all the screws. Pull the broken light cover away from the body of the car. Replace with new tail light cover and replace and tighten screws.


How is the bright tail of a comet produced?

A comet's tail is formed when the Sun's radiation and the pressure of light drive the very thin gases and very small particles that form the head of a comet away from the head.
