have you done anything electrical wise lately?

a fuse pops because of high amps. either a short to ground, or something in your circuit consuming alot of it.

im thinking its your vss about to take a crap, drawing excessive current.

u have a short somewhere if u continue to clow fuses as soon as u change them, check for lose wires that might be grounded out. I found some behind my radio that kept blowin the fuse for my gauge cluster was a real pain n the ****
