the williams keeps blowing the main engine fuse in the aux fuse box under the scuttle, next to the 25A one for the rad fan, its another 25A with picture of the engine on it.

any idea what could be causing this?

think thats the live feed for the instrument clusters

so something behind the dash could be shorting out?

right its the fuel pump circuit somewhere thats doing it, but on the ecu ignition feed side of it, what the hell could it be? fuel pump itself? or would that blow the fule pump fuse first rather than the ecu one?

this is not good, i need the car, if it lets me down again its getting broken for spares

I thought that engine fuse was a 30amp one....

my moneys on it being the actual engine loom, shorting out on the body somewhere, could try wiggling it until it cuts out? or looking for any 'exposed' wire..
