hey theres a fuse for "ROOM" whats does this mean? whats ROOM?

i have a blown fuse on this spot. i juss wanted to know wahts it for?

 

It's short for VA-ROOM, that's the 20 hp fuse to light up the APC stickers.

Nah, I'm just being a smart *** at 5:43/a. It's the interior fuse.

 

haha ok gotcha. hey what does it mean when i tried to pop in a new fuse. it juss blew it again. the car was off but the battery was connected.

 

you might have a wire crossed or a short some ware

 

damn! so where should i check. what things should i check that might be shorted?

 

Did you do any stereo work lately?

 

um not me. i juss got the car. the speakers are out.. so the stereo doesnt work

 

hey stan,

when i got my car, it had came with an aftermarket cd player. when i took out the room fuse, my car wasn't shorting anymore. since where on the topic, what should i do?

 

The 7.5A ROOM fuse provides constant battery power to the ECU, clock, stereo, interior lights and alarm.

 

If NZ would have had more time, he would have told you to purchase some more fuses of the same rating, then disconnect everything you can from the above list of items so graciously given, and reinsert a good fuse...

Still blows? Then it's either wiring, or something you haven't disconnected yet.

Doesn't blow? Start reconnecting things until it does blow- there's your bad boy. Fix or repair as needed

 

ok ill try this.
so is that all i should disconnect? is there more?
ECU, CLOCK, STEREO, Interior Lights, Alarm.
i dont think i have an alarm. so scratch that.
what do you mean by interior lights? just the DOME Light by the Rear View Mirror right?
and juss disconnect the harness from the ECU, and Stereo and clock and stuff?

 

hey ok well i tried doing this. and it didnt work. i unplugged everything! ecu, gauge cluster, warning light, rear view mirror light, the lights on the door, stereo, all the switches on the dash. and still when i tried to put in a fuse, it did blue sparks so i would quickly take out the fuse to save it.

i dont get wats wrong?

 

can anyone help me? give me instructions on what to check next. i dont get this.
