Alternator Fuse keeps blowing 97 EX coupe
so the civic keeps popping the 7.5 amp fuse #15. I read the service bulletin about the fix. i pulled the wiring harness all apart and the wires look fine. alternator wire looks fine. no breaks or cracks in any of the wires.
Took out alternator and battery to get tested they both tested out just fine.
So i retaped everything back up popped in a new fuse and still pops
Any other ideas?

Along with fuse 15 popping, are you also getting any of the accompanying CEL codes (VSS, O2 sensor, or ELD) mentioned in the TSB?

Is turning the key to ON(II) sufficient to blow fuse 15? Or do you have to start the engine and drive the car? Does it blow quickly or does it take some time?

I am also having the same fuse 15 problem, I also took a look at all my wires, look good. Good battery and alternator. But I am getting an O2 sensor cel. I must drive the car to blow the fuse and it usually blows within a quarter mile. Any ideas?
