Dying Main Relay Fuse

Post by Jawsiiv »

Help quickly

93 Civic Si

Main relay fuse keeps blowing. I have cleaned the thermostat housing several times. Fuse number 12 is the only one that keeps blowing. No other fuse is blown. HELP

I took it out clean. Figured out it was a couple of wires to my VSS that were touching metal....cleaned it up, and now she runs....on to the over heating problem.
