When I turn on the air-conditioner switch it blows the 7.5 amp fuse.
Disconnected the AC compressor and it still blows the fuse, I believe it’s something wrong with the amplifier.

Hi Sean,

Here is the wiring diagram with each of the components that come off the 7.5 amp fuse. The best way to find what is blowing this fuse is going to each of these components and installing a smaller amp fuse on each of these components. So they have 3 amp or 5 amp fuses just for this purpose. When you install these fuses on these components then which ever is causing the 7.5 amp fuse to blow will first take out the lower amp fuse and then you know which component is causing your issue.

Let me know if this is not clear and I will give you more detail. Thanks
