Why is my ignition fuse blowing when I turn the key on. I have blown 4 fuses in a row.....and my truck will turn over but not crank. Where do I begin looking for the culprit?
Chances are, you have a short somewhere in the wiring that is causing too much amperage to pass through the fuse causing it to blow. Use a decent voltmeter that will show opens and shorts to test continuity with the wires that run to the ignition.

A bad relay or a shorted wire. Pull the relay, turn the ignition on. Fuse pops, bad wire from the ignition switch to the fuse/relay panel. If it doesn't, swap relays in the panel. Turn it on, if the fuse pops, bad wire to the ECM or the ECM has shorted internally. If it doesn't pop, replace the relay.
Fuse under the right passenger dash. Fifth up on the right (blue 15 amp). It is called BCK/UP/STOP. All the same symptoms short in wiring harness for the trailer package caused the windows not to function, the right rear turn signal had no power, and the key was stuck in the ignition.
the dash sound's like a fuse, check the fuse box under the hood and in the door jamb on the side of the dash, also check your fuel filter and fuel pump, im betting on the pump because i have a 2001 chevy blazer that has had two replaced and it has 233000km on it!
i have a 98 chevy s10 zr2 and we changed the fuel pump and aint gettin no power to the fuel pump checked the fuses and relay under the hood no power and the gauges inside are not working other than lightin up.are there another fuse link some where
