Take the blown/bad  fuse with you and get the same size (amperage) &amp;shape.  fuses don't blow w/o a reason so you need to find out what caused it, whether it be a bad ground, a short somewhere, the protective coating on a wire rubbed off or nicked, etc. and touching metal, causing the short.</p></blockquote><p></p>
