A few days ago the 25A 4wd fuse blew and I replaced it. When I turned the truck on again, it blew again.
Is there something I can check that would remedy this? We are having a long winter and I need my 4wd back! Thanks for your help!

I would un plug the transmission loom first and see it it still blows a fuse, if not the problem in below that plug, start to narrow down the problem first, let me know what you find.
