2001 Ford Expedition - Fuse # 14 blows instantly in the interior fuse box, it controls the rear wiper,rear defrost, running board lights, and window motors. I disconnected all of the above, but it still blows. Also, the rear AC blower stopped working about the same time. Help [email protected]

It appears that all these are on a single fuse. Locate the fuse box under dash near the steering column and remove the cover. A fuse diagram will be on the back side of this cover and will tell you which fuse to replace. Owners manual will tell you the same.

The fuse blows? Your vehicle has only ONE fuse? Never seen any vehicle like that ever. Oh, wait a minute! Maybe you DIDN'T TELL US WHAT FUSE YOU MEANT. Tail light fuse, AC fuse, power windows fuse, fuel pump fuse, interior lights fuse, parking lights fuse? Which fuse babe?

One of your power wires is grounding to something, whether through a switch or relay.

I had wires fuse together that had the same effect in a vehicle years ago. Constantly blew fuses and happened to find the 2 wires fused under the dash in the steering console.

This is probably not your problem but there are very few things that cause those fuses to blow that rapidly.

Electrical is difficult to troubleshoot over the net though. Find out what the fuse goes to and try to follow the wires from point A to B as much as you can. May be as simple as a wire that the insulation is rubbed off or cut at a point and touching the body.

Hey Jb,
Does this situation prevent the vehicle being driven??.. Here is a diagram of the fuse box,,, try a slightly larger fuse (replace a 15 with a 20 - NO MORE than 5 AMPS up!!)
