NEED HELP PLEASE

[Jamerjoe]

I was taking off from a light and my ty died in the middle of the road. I turned out the be the ECM 1 fuse. I replaced the fuse and the ty started right up. As soon as I put it in gear and gave it some gas, it died again. I did that 3 time and everytime using a bigger amp fuse. Findly I got it running, drove it for about 2 miles and it died again. I replaced the blown fuse again and now when I go to start the ignition the fuse pops. Any Ideas????? I thought it might be the fuel pump.

could be wrong on this, but i thought it was usually ecm b that blows not a when you have a dead fuel pump.

i would certainly not continue increasing your fuse size though, there is definely something wrong and if you go too big you could have a nasty fire on your hands.

something is sure eating up the current on that circuit though. check all of your grounds and make certain they are good.

I found my problem. The ground wire for the ECM was loose. I tighten it put and the ty runs really good now.

Thank for your help.

what he said...the same thing happened on my sy...it ended up being the wastegate solenoid orange wire that melted to the turbo exhaust housing at some point...direct short of the orange wire will blow that fuse...looks like they rigged a permanent ecm1 fuse so it fried a wire between the fuse block and ecm ...all's better now though...i fixed it...
