Been 2 weeks can't figure out why it's running like ****, it's blowing the courtasy light fuse and if I put a new fuse in, the ABS INOP light comes on til it blows the fuse then it goes off, and so does my radio >.< Car is running WAYYYYY rich and studders whenever you accelerate, I've replaced the coil already and saw no wires sparking. Help anyone

 

Can anyone help me out? Do I need to provide more info?

 

Alright I'll take a stab at it.

First let's make sure we are talking about the same fuses. I assume you meant the 15AMP Courtesy fuse #8 in the I/P fuse panel, correct?

The only thing remotely common to both, and I say remotely common, is the audio alarm module in the convenience center. It is powered by the courtesy fuse as is several other items. BUT, it is the only device powered by that fuse that is connected to the gages fuse #9.

It is right behind and below the I/P fuse panel. It has a black 12 wire connector going to it. Unplug it and see if the fuse doesn't blow this time.

If that doesn't work, you have to keep unplugging items connected to the fuse in question until you get to the right one.

Oh yeah, instead of using fuses to find the problem. Use a multi meter. At the fuse plug, measure both sides to ground with the fuse out. One side has 12 volts and the other does not. Put one of the meter leads in the side of the fuse plug that does not and the other to ground. Now set the meter to ohms. If the problem still exists, the meter will read some low ohm number. When you find the bad item or wire, the meter will go high. Understand?
Let us know what happens.
