I'm so over my car right now, I'd sell it for a dime if I didn't owe so much on it.
All right, I'm driving real slow early yesterday morning, car starts to buck, like I'm not giving it enough gas. I shift into 2nd and give it gas, the car stalls. Tried to start it, wouldn't turn over, but it cranked.
Long story short, 9 hours later, 1 shop later, and 3 mechanics, I have a blown 10 AMP mini fuse in the dash for the ECU.
Replaced it with a spare 10 amp mini fuse, car turns over, and I drive home. I'm suppose to be going out to Tampa later on last night, I pull out of the drive way, the car stalls again. Check the fuse, it had blown again. Used the ABS fuse, since I don't have ABS, started the car, put it in first, started to drive away, it died again.
Replaced the fuse again, this time with the Audio 10 amp fuse, the same thing happened.
Since the 10's were blowing, I upped it to 15 amp fuse, the spare we carry in our cars. The car works fine now.
Does anyone know where I should start looking for the short in the ECU system? Is it the ECU, or the harness?
I'm afraid to keep using the 15 amp fuse, because the wires might start to overheat and melt after continuing use of the fuse.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
