[QUOTE="Kangaroux, post: 8300028, member: 628495"] As mentioned before you most likely have a loose connection. If two wires aren't in very good contact, the electrons will have to "jump" to go across. This generates a lot of heat and could be what's burning up your fuse holders. However, since you said you've gone through multiple fuse holders, it sounds more like a problem with the wire that's creating a lot of resistance (corrosion/oxidation) What's the wiring kit you used, and what size fuses are you using? Is your ground attached to bare metal (sanded away so there is no paint or primer) [/QUOTE]
