Got my radio back from Pete today.
Put it in, hooked up the harness and turned the key. No lights so i checked the fuses. The acc fuse was blown. Popped in another, turned the key and it blew right away. I unhooked the radio harness to take that out of the equation but still happens.
I know next to nothing about electrical work so don't have a clue where to start or what to look for. Any help its greatly appreciated.

Re: Blown fuse
Without being there the only advice is, to start with where you have been working. What have you taken apart, and put back on. look at all your work, you may have pinched a wire somewhere between something. Good luck

Re: Blown fuse
Well I got it figured out. It was just as l suspected, I've had an idiot doing all my work (me). One of the connections in the trunk area was resting on the frame.
