my radio, cig lighter, and blower all cut out at the same time. One fuse that is melting (not blowing) is the turn signal/bu fuse, and for some reason when I pull it out all three things listed above dont get any power, but my turn lamps arent affected at all. I pulled the fuse box and took a peek inside, and it looks like the PO spliced in a wire to get power to it from the gauge fuse. The other fuse that is melting...albeit at a much slower pace is the blower fuse, and they are both melting on the side that 12 volts comes in to.
As long as I dont turn on the blower motor everything is fine, but the minute I switch it on is when those two fuses start to overheat and melt. Ive owned this 87 XJ for 3 years with the wiring unkowingly this way with no issues...it just one day decided to start melting stuff. I havent tried it in reverse yet with the radio and cig lighter off and blower on, but plan on doing that tonight when I head to work.
Any ideas with what ive described so far?
Thanks,
