Need help, keep blowing IG fuse
Alright guys, I decided to change my cabin harness because the original one has been hacked up by the previous owner and my car recently died threw codes 10(IAC),20(Electrical Overload),6(Water temp sensor) which Im assuming is from the old harness being all hacked up and touching each other cause the ECU started to smoke/burn. I pulled a Cabin harness from a 92-95 EX coupe and installed it on my 93 DX hatch, so some plugs are not going to be used. I finished pluging everything up and now after putting the battery back on I blow the IG fuse in the engine bay.
I tried a new fuse and it keeps blowing it, I hear clicking sounds from the starter area before it eventually blows. Im stumped, any ideas on what it could be? There are no exposed wires anywhere on the new harness. The only 2 things I had to rewire was the MAP sensor since the previous owner tapped it into the old harness for what ever reason and decided to cut the one at the Engine harness (so i tapped it back there)and pass headlight. Other than that, I have no clue what can be the problem.
My cousin says it might be the fuse box. The one under the dash or engine bay or both.
Plus, I am not getting any power anywhere. Interior, headlights etc...All the other fuse under the dash and engine bay is all fine even the 80A battery.

Re: Need help, keep blowing IG fuse
Checked the dash fuse box for power and the only power its getting is at the relay at the end of the box and on the engine bay fuse box, its only getting power at the IG,BATTERY,TAILS fuse.
Could both fuse box be blown? Im going to the junkyard and pick up 2 fuse box and give it a try.
Bump for some answers and suggestions.
