Car won't start. Fuse blown.
 

What's up guys! Advice is needed. Maybe somebody had this problem before...

I had this problem already several times during last 4 days but now every time.
When I try to start the car it starts and then stalls at once. "Engine cont." fuse is blown. I change the fuse and car either starts without any problem or fuse is blown again. The rating of that fuse is 10A. I went up to 20A and drove 2 days without a problem but yesterday it blowed as well. I suspected remote starter and disconnected it - no help.
Some first times "Starter" fuse was blown as well as "Engine cont." but not recently.

I replaced spark plugs yesterday because some of old ones had cracks in insulator. Sofar no problem yet but I don't think plugs were the reason.

Generally I traced wiring from the fuse to an inhibitor relay. It can be a suspect.
Or alternator. But before I'll dig into those I'd like to ask for your advice.

What do you guys think? Any advice is appreciated.

You obviously have a short somewhere.
I'd start looking for a wire that is chafed.
it's probably a power line grounding out against the body.

wierd...exact same thing happened to me 3-4 days ago :(...after changing the fuse twice...its not happened again.

man, it's weird. In my case it happened much more than twice :(
What fuse did you get blown? "Engine cont" only or "Starter" as well?

Yesterday I swapped relays from suspect wiring lines to the ones from other lines. Let's see. But I don't believe that it'll resolve my problem.

Please keep me updated if it'll ever happen to you again.

on mine it was the engine control fuse as well !

but since then...so far so good ... i think that muffler shop mechanic was cursed .. lol

slightly off topic, but this may be a theft-deterrent, too: one could intentionally remove the starter and engine cont. fuses and the car is not going to move anywhere.

Yeah I've seen people do that.
