On Thurs. after running errands, car would not start. Key in ignition and "nothing." Battery is fine. Took to mechanic, 30amp Fuse blown, mechanic able to start with new fuse/fuse tester system, they started it 50plus times, but the fuse never blew again for them. Drove it away and was stranded again. Friday, they replaced starter and solinoid(cant spell that, sorry) and also started it over and over, testing it- and according to them,all was "fine". I drove car for 3 hours and turned it off to get gas. when I tried to start up- same exact thing- turned key "nothing" happened, no power, no engine ignition and the same 30amp fuse is blown.
I replaced fuse with car still hot, and fuse blew immediately upon turning key. I let car cool and replaced fuse, it again blew immediately upon turning key in ignition.
So, if problem is electircal/ wiring then did I never need a new starter/solinoid ? Should the shop refund me for that? Any ideas as to what is causing fuse to blow? help!
