Maybe a problem with the 5th gear switch on the tranny (or it's wiring).

Well I know it took a while to get back and I still have the problem and no its not fixed but I learned how to avoid it. It only happen when I cant get my car into reverse. Replace shifter bushings and one of the bolts broke so when it loosens up I cant go in reverse. If the bolts are tight than no fuse blows. On the thread that I read they was saying that the light for the key was blown. Bad news for me mine is also I replace the bulb and it is still blown is there a fuse some where that corrects that problem just in case.
