Title: My fuse keeps blowing and i cant wrap my brain around it.
Post by: Kruznic on 24 February 2012, 18:53:27

Hello my fellow omega owners.

I have a slight problem i cant get my brain around.
One of my fuses keeps blowing and i cant find the problem.
I refer to this diagram http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1161602010 (http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1161602010)
Fuse Nr. 12 keeps blowing. I have removed the stereo head unit just to eliminate that possibility.
And i have separated 2 cables from my broken sunscreen courtesy light after the break in.

I have no idea what else to do... even 30 amp fuses blows in under 2 seconds.
anyone have any ideas? i just want my stereo to work again. :'(

EDIT: on a side note. does the steering column and the wiring there have anything to do with that fuse?
        my ignition broke so i now hot-wire the car to use it... i still need the key for the fuel pump
        to activate tho

if it was anything like mine that kept blowing it was the courtosy lights in sun visors, some clown had put screw through the wiring to them, but the bodged wiring to get working

check the boot light if the plastic cover for the wire has come off or melted can ark on the shell of mig and blow fuse, also check the wires in the doors as over time the wires can crack and split, puddle lights. also pop out the the center light and check the wires are ok in there.
