Please Help

I did some searching but nothing could help me with this situation. The EGI COMP fuse under the main fuse box keeps blowing. I dont understand why. At first it blew and I replaced it and it worked fine for about 2 weeks. Then it blew on the way home and my car wouldnt start. So I go to Autozone to buy some fuses and put the first one in. Tried to start it and it wouldnt fire up. Checked the fuse and it had already blown! So I put in the other spare fuse and do the same. It blew again on me. Any suggestions?

Do you have a short on that circuit somewhere?

They make circuit testers. i think you can get one at radio shack or something like that but i'm not positive. you might want to create new thread with a title like "keep blowing EGI fuse" so people who know about that particular problem are more likely to look at the thread and reply. good luck.
