Keeps popping fuses in the start position - Garden

if the fuse pops when turning to crank position the problem lies within the small solenoid wire to the starter (this wire goes from the ign.switch to the starter solenoid and is powered up when in the start position) this wire is shorted to ground....or the starter solenoid is shorted....best way to tell is unhook wire from solenoid and turn key to start...if the fuse does not pop its the solenoid....do this several times to verify

Could be a bad switch or a ground fault. Unclip the wires(or terminal) from the switch and inspect the plug for a short. Replace the fuse and turn the ignition on with the switch unplugged. If the fuse still pops there is a ground fault somewhere else in the wiring.

Fix the known shorted switch ... then continue your trouble shooting.

replace the cooling fan motor

check wireing to injectors may worn and blowing fuse

you have a DIRECT SHORT in your electrical system and finding it is by process of elimination,......good luck on this, could be frustrating doing yourself,...i'd recommend auto electric shop,.....cracklin joe,....

I found that while checking my fuses that i had pulled out what looked like a black plastic "fuse puller" that was actually some kind of jumper. I had accidentally re-installed it reversed. I reversed it back to its original position and all lights, clock, radio, etc.. work normal now.

I know this sounds aomewhat general, however please give the following some thought:
Check your relays, if you have an aftermarket horn you may have a different relay. To troubleshoot unplug your headlight, unplug your horn, etc.. Turn your ignition switch to accessory only. See if the fuse pops. If it does unplug whatever added accessories you may have still have plugged in. Once you can get the fuse to stop popping, turn the ignition switch to on. Then one at a time plug you accessory, headlight, etc. back in. When you find what pops the fuse, unplug that item, start plugging in the other items, if the fuse has not popped you have potentially isolated the circuit causing the issue. Now check the wiring for loose connections, bad ground, and CHECK the relay if that item has one. Hope this helps,

You know whats connected to the fuse, now start systematically disconnect each component and each time you try the fuse same fault, reconnect, till you ge t to the component which you disconnect and do not blow the fuse, now you know it is in that component start tracing the wires/bulb connections. , have 10 spare fuses ready'

If you keep popping fuses everytime you try to start the car, you have a bare hot wire grounding out somewhere. That will cause the fuse to pop everytime you turn the key on. the best way to fix it is if you know someone who is good with electrical wires. Have them pull the fuse panel out and follow the wire until they find where the wire is bare. Have them fix that bad spot and that should fix your problem.
