The other day i was cruising down the street when all of a sudden the car shut off as i was making a left turn. So i pulled to the side, and tried to start the car agian , but there was no luck. I looked around the relay/fuse box and i saw the 30amp ignition switch fuse was blown.So i had to get my car towed home, Goog thing i had AAA. I really didnt think of it much after i replaced the fuse, But until this morning when agian the fuse got blown, Luckly i had a spare this time. My question is this what can cause the fuse to get blown? I almost forgot to mention that i have the KA24E motor.

I really apriciate it if i can get an answer. Thanks

a short. power comes from battery to fuse. the fuse sends the power to ignition switch which sends power to various places depending on position of key. look for nicked wire etc
