Hello guys,


I have a Major electrical problem...I was looking for some help.

Here we go....

i got this car about a moth ago, and the car drove just fine everything was perfect. Then I was at a stoplight and the car shut of on me. I checked the FUSES and find out that the "ENG CONT 2" Fuse was blown out. I replaced the fuse and then it worked fine. 2 days later the fuse blew again...I replaced the fuse with a 20v instead of the 15v that was in there. it seems to do the job for about 3 weeks till recently the fuse blew again. I tried to replace the fuse and every time I inserted a new fuse in it blew it right away. So I called the Mobile Electric and let him fix it. He was working on that car for 3 HR at $65 and hour. That ******* got really frustrated and started yelling at me and telling me that this car is way too electrical and too difficult. He rewired the "ENG CONT 2" Fuse straight to the ECU..., which I know was a bad idea. Still then he could not start it. I then had to pay him his money for not doing **** and had to tow the car to my house. When I got home I rewired everything back to the way it was before the "Electric" jerry rigged it. And the car started right up... So now I don’t know what the hell is going on. I am worried that this fuse will blow again...Any ideas why this is happening?? I have tried everything and nothing is helping. ANY HELP AT ALL WILL HELP!!!


here is my MAX.....

 

Sounds like you had a ground fault. By re-wiring it, did you replace any wires, or just move them around? Typically when a fuse blows it's because there's a ground fault somewhere. They don't just blow on their own.

 

well that is what i suspected....i moved a whole bunch of wires around. I moved them near the ECU and the FUSE box. it seems to be fine now sitting on a 15v fuse but i dont know what to expect...

 

Expect it to blow again unless you can find the fault.
