Alrighty so in this journey of replacing IAC, repaired ECM, I am now having a blown #24 fuse problem - it's a tiny little 7.5A that is now continuing to pop - obviously a ton of accessories on this fuse that I may have to run down - however thought I would see what common reasons would be for this short circuit are??
Any ideas / suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks.

Turn Signal / Hazard
Illumination
Interior Lighting

Re: Fuse 24 elec B
When does the fuse blow? Turning accessory on? Turning ignition on? Turning lights on? Something else?

Appreciate the interest Chuck - So the fuse pops literally as soon as I plug in the fuse box - no key in the ignition, so I am not sure what it could be?

Re: Fuse 24 elec B
That would simplify things a lot, at least on a 2001, since most of the things the fuse supplies are on the other side of the ignition key. IIRC, the only thing on a '01 that isn't switched is the power antenna. I'll have a look through an '02 FSM later.

Re: Fuse 24 elec B
Fuse 24 goes to the following places:
Ignition switch
Smart Entrance Control Unit
Security LED
Combination Meter (instrument panel)
Electric Antenna
I'd inspect each of these things first.

Thanks Chuck - One of the mechanics that I know looked at it this morning & unbeknowst to me, put a larger fuse in Space 24 and when he did, he said he saw the Smart Entrance Control Unit spark up (?!! - right?)....in any case, I guess that is the culprit - I will try to find one on-line or in a junk yard and will post back - Given that this one of the possibilities from the above posts, I will assume for now that it was the issue.
