The fuse for my front power shades keeps blowing.. I can replace the fuse, and everyting works fine for a day or two. Then, no work, fuse blowen. I have even went to the next size up on the fuse, but the same thing. It is like it has a short somewhere, and after moving around, it blows.. Anyone had this same problem..? and if so where would be the best place to start looking for a short ??

I just fixed the same problem on our coach a day or so ago.

In our case, the 3 amp fuse would blow when it felt like it. The problem turned out being what I loving call a Monaco Screw thru the dash and into the wiring harness.

I found the problem by using a 12 volt light bulb in place of the fuse on a long piece of speaker wire that ran into the coach. When the short was there the bulb would light up.

Backing out the screws on the dash found the problem.

Good luck!
