I had the same problem. Everytime I would turn the ignition past Accesory to the On position the 20A fuse would pop. I went through 15 or so fuses. I could get it to start every now and then, so one time it started I drove it up to Sears Auto and they diagnosed the Battery as having a bad cell. Replaced the battery and haven't pop a fuse since then.
Popping the 20A ignition fuse....have your battery tested and probably replaced!
check the starter too if battery is good
I had this problem as well. It turned out to be the starter. It occurs when you move to "start" and the starter fails to engage. Whether this was simply a bad solenoid, or something else in the starter, I can't say for sure. In short, if the engine didn't immediately turn, the fuse would blow in about 2 seconds. I got around it for quite a while by being very careful to not hold the switch in start unless I detected the engine turning over. Eventually the starter ws relaced and all is well.
A fuse that keeps blowing is an indication of a malfunctioning ignition. The ignition may be the culprit or the wiring leading to the ignition may be the problem.
Because something on that supply line has a problem
there is a problem with your ignition coil or wires
Had the same problem and it was the computer chip in the ignition key
timing , burnt valve, fuel/carburation prob.....most likely a timing/ignition problem.
I have a 2001 Dodge Stratus 2.7 and had the same problem. I ended up replacing the fuel pump in the gas tank.
Problem with the starter. Possibly locked up, or shorted out. Remove and test the starter.
There is a problem on the engine or transmission. One of the sensors sends a code to the computer and this code is store into the memory. You can use this information to fix the problem To find the errror you have to turn the ignition on and off 3 times. Chrysler calls this key dance ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON. The code with the problem will be display on the cluster. Write it down and check the code.
Your ignition coil has probably failed.
you have an engine/ignition problem. HAve a garage read the codes and diagnose the problem soon.
its either the starter or your ignition
by blowing me
