Hi
My 1997 Ford Explorer keeps blowing the anti theft fuel system fuse #3 in the main fuse box in the engine compartment. Supposed to be 20 amp, but that blew so we put 30 amp in which blew after a few days, then put 40 amp in which lasted a month or so, now blown, and now we have a 60 amp in there to get us home today!! Any ideas please on what the hell might be going on?? Obviously when the fuses blow it cuts the engine out which means no steering or brakes as the immobiliser is activated. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanking you in advance :)
 






IMHO you should stop replacing fuses and take your Ex to the nearest Ford repair shop or to an experienced auto electrician who could take a look at the circuit and find out where it shorts.
