Default Electric and fuse problems...car wont start

One day i went out and the car randomly died during driving . Saw that the gauge cluster, windows and turn signals didnt work.

Ended up replacing the Main Relay cus i didnt hear the pump priming either. Didnt work. The car didnt start or have the cluster lights work either

Replaced some of the fuses (which looked good actually) with higher than supposed to be amps (just temporary until i could go to the store) cus i read about Maxi Fuses and how some of the fuses are linked. I got the car to start perfectly when i replaced the started signal fuse.

Quit on me again and replaced with the right amps started up fine. Worked for two days and it quit with the same probs. BUT, replacing the fuses do nothing this time. Suggestions?? TIA

If it keeps blowing the fuses, sounds like an electrical short. I hate those...

i dont know what to say have you tried cheking for any change in voltage in your lines and find out if the fuse blows when you switch the ignition or when you turn the key to a ceratain point or if its like as soon as you put it in.
i mean check your voltage at different points on your wires before it reaches the fuse see where it changes maybe that might help.
