Hello you have a short you need to check your wires first in areas where they make contact with the frame start at the ignition switch and front end areas where the may rub and wear off insulation visual inspection if not then use a tester to find the short.

SOURCE: lost headlight,horn,both turn signals last week

Somewhere you have a dead short, i.e. wire shorted to ground. Only solution is to trace all your wires from the fuse box to the switches, headlight, horn, and turn signals. This will be much easier if you have access to a service manual, but can be done without one if you are patient.

SOURCE: disconnected battery,when i reconected i blew 15

The main fuse (30 amp) is on the starter relay under the red plug with the thinner wires going into it.

SOURCE: I keep blowing the accessory fuse on my electra glide

I'd say that you have an intermittant short somewhere. These are very difficult to find. I'd start at the tail light assembly as most of the time, I've found the shorts in that area, from the seat back to the tail light assembly.

Good Luck
Steve

1997 s320 mercedes benz fuse keep blowing

Mr, Washington,since you have blown fuse and even after you replace it still blown,it is better to find the fuse for what purpose is for on the car and try to get deeper check if you can or if you do not ,just ask the assistance from an expert electrician. Please do not attempt to use an over the specified amps. If you try or tried it is a risk to blow the circuit, ECU or the sensor which is covering it.

Why was the battery replaced? Theres no reason the the 100 amp fuse to blow unless the alternator is shorted or you hooked up the battery backwards. I think the 100 amp fuse goes to the alternator. If it was hooked up backwards then you may have engine computer damage.

1998 Jeep Cherokee blown fuse

Hello There

15 Amp sounds too small. It should be around 25 -30 Amp. You need to double check the size of fuse needed.

Hope this helps.

1995 dodge caravan

it happens every time you run the rear wipers, it blows out the fuse, and thus the red air bag light goes on. they are on the same circuit. try not to use the rear wiper. to fix it, just temporarily use a 15 or twenty amp fuse in place of the blown out one (refer to the manual for fuse box and amps), this will set the wiper to sit back in its normal position. After this has been done, go ahead and replace the fuse with the correct amps, and the air bag red light will sets off.
Note:( reason to use higher amps is to allow the wiper to sit back in its own place, otherwise, if using the same lower amps it will keep blowing it out.) ofcourse disconnect battery first. Good luck
