Default #8 fuse keeps blowing when deck installed

for some reason my fuse keeps blowing. my car was stolen and the thieves stole the deck as well. i recently installed a new deck but when i turn my headlights **** on, it ends up blowing the fuse. i checked if any of the wiring was touching but they were all clean, any help from anyone that had this similar problem, much appreciated.

The reason why a fuse blows is a short to ground. When your deck is installed, where are you recieving power to power the deck. Is it from the battery positive post or the ignition switch. It may be a copper wire exposed and circuit is trying to find easy path. Therefore it leads a short to chassis and blows fuse. Inspect the power wire for deck and work yourself to fuse terminal. good luck
