P12 audio fuse blowing

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Please can anybody help me with my p12, my 15amp fuse in the engine bay next to the battery keeps blowing, i changed the fuse and everything worked fine for a week or so, but now the fuse blows as i am fitting it into its slot. When the fuse goes the screen goes off also the stereo and nothing works except the heater blower which kicks in and cant be turned off. This happened about four times and seems to go pop when going over big bumps but this could be a coincidence.  Thanks. She is 06 hatch

	Sorry but I can only offer the obvious advice that you have a short some where and you need to trace the wires to find out why. This is not a common problem and therefore no easy pointer as to where to look
