not blown, it may not be making good electrical contact.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">I got tired of chasing the circuit that caused that fuse to
blow, so I added an auxiliary fuse box under the dash and broke all of those
circuits (except heater blower) out each with its own fuse. Sure does make
troubleshooting a lot easier and quicker.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
