Hi there,
Car: 1991 240sx with KA24DE. Car is a project car. I bought it with no engine, no trans and swapped in the stock KA from a wrecked car.

My accessory fuse keeps on blowing. It's NOT the radio. Everything on that is wired how it is supposed to. Red to red, etc. Fuse blows upon insertion. Any ideas what is causing this?

Because of this stupid fuse, I have no clock, no radio, no dome light, etc.

And yes, I've searched. Unfortunately no one seems to post solutions after they've figured out what's wrong with their stuff.

You have a short to ground. Yes it sounds stupid. You've wired everything correctly.. But trust me we all make mistakes. I i had accidentally crushed a wire next to a screw when installing my radio and the screw shorted it to ground. Just double check everything over. pull it all back out if that is the last thing you did before experiencing this problem.
