WTF?!!!!! Options

Car keeps blowing the gauge fuse and windows will not roll up. Car turns on fine, dome light works, all lights work except on gauge and car alarm will roll windows up when activated. But it keeps blowing the gauge fuse after I put 5 in, all blown up once I start the car. Anyone know what the problem is? I need to be able to fix this asap.

Nevermind. We just taped a few wires not knowing really what we were doing and all of a sudden it works, but we have a 5A fuse in there and so I should go pick up some 10A.

even though the wire may not be touching another wire, it may be shorting to ground by touching anything metal. the chassis and metal components on the car are basically your ground. i would advise you to find out where the problem wire goes and re attach it or make it so that there is no bare wire and doesn't come into contact with any metal (ground). hit me up on myspace if you need any more help.
