There is no real way for us to say....

Best bet is recent electrical work done to your car or accident/collision?

This is potentially dangerous. I would consult a Nissan Dealer before you go putting in higher rated fuses than stock. If you do that with a car amplifier, you possibly blow the amp, you do that with an integral part of the car and you could possibly blow something WAY more expensive to fix. Just my $0.02.

I already tried putting in higher amp fuse but it blew that out also. so everytime i go to turn the car on these fuses keep blowing and i called nissan dealer but they wont look at the car becuase i got hydrolics and tvs and alot of other **** on it. so now i dont know what it could be... does anyone know what the EGN CONT fuse is? what it does?

Chances are some installer tapped into a wire he wasn't supposed to... Backtrack from your most recent install work. Good luck... you'll need it.
