Hi, 1997 Olds Regency 20amp fuel fuse blew while driving. I replaced the fuse and it drove fine for a week and now every time I put a new fuse in it blows when the key is turned on. Could this be the relay...

A short or overload. Get a wiring diagram. Find the circuit. Disconnect items on that circuit one at a time. If all are disconnected and the fuse still blows, you've got a wiring harness issue.

start chasing wires. Sounds like something is shorted or worse, a hot wire may be grounded out.
Good place to start is all wires headed to the started as that is a common place for a power wire to melt against hot exhaust.
(that was the case for my 99 chevy)
Check all other fuses and make sure none are blown.

My atc fuse would keep blowing I put a bigger fuse it didn't blow that but I herd a zap noise from my TCCM now my 4x4 won't work 1999 jimmy

What you have done? You Just damage the TCCM and that's why you will not manage to shift 4x4. Why this happened? Because you had shortage somewhere and you receive blown ATC fuse.You put a bigger fuse in capacity where the was stronger to blown and the fault moved to the tccm system which was not protected and blown.Ask for an expert to check and see whether the fault is easy to get fixed.

I have a 2002 Trailblazer. The 4wheel drive service light is on what should I do? The 4wheel drive isn't working at all. Can I continue to drive in 2 wheel High until I get to dealer?

Your fine to drive it on 2wd till you make it to the dealer, but in the mean time check your 4wd fuse. The 4X4 encoder motor is know to blow fuses in cold days and it's a simple fix by replacing a fuse for 35 cent then having a dealer replace it for $65.00 service charge. Good luck and hope ti's a simple fuse that has gone bad, there common to go bad when 4wd is engaged during cold operation.

I have a 1998 chevy blazer (s-10) 4.3L 4x4 it keeps blowing the #15 (10amp) 4wd fuse, if you put a 10 amp fuse in it will blow the minute you turn it on ,then we put a 15 amp in it seems to do it when you...

check transfer case electrical switch, sometime if it bad it will also blow the fuse. don't recommend you put any higher fuse than recommend, If the fuse blow there is a short some where and by putting higher amp fuse you might short or burn something else beside the fuse. if that check out than check your transfer case motor, might lock up and not allowing the motor to turn instead it short the fuse. don't drive the car, just leave it in park, put correct fuse amp back in and unplug transfer case electric switch and turn the key on (dont start the car) and see if the fuse blow; if not plug it back in and see if it blow the fuse. if that is not the case, unplug transfer case wire, and do the same and see if it blow the fuse.

Chevy silverado keeps blowing fuses

Your 20 amp fuse will not blow if glowplug wire shorts. each plug draws 15 amps which is 120 amps total.I think there are in line fuses for them. Try to wring out where each output from the fuse goes, disconnect all and reconnect one at a time till it blows.That should point to your problem process of illumination! Good Luck!!
