My car keeps blowing the number 10-10 amp fuse, engine control (gasoline) when the keys is turned on. I have had the relay checked it is good. Put a new electric fuel pump in and it still keeps blowing. Any ideas on why it is still blowing?

Also bought a new battery. It was not doing this before. I bought a new battery it started right up ran for a few minutes then shut off. Blowing the fuses every since now.

Hello,

That fuse goes to the engine computer which powers sensors injectors etc. I would start by looking for any burnt wiring near the exhaust system and then try disconnecting the fuel injectors and oxygen sensors to see if the fuse still blows.

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken

Come to find out the ignition coil went out. That fuse also controls that.
