Chrysler Repair: 98 Concorde: fuse blows, 30 amp fuse, fuse block


Question
I was not allowed to ask another follow up question so I am responding here. THe fuse is under the hood.  Again, my owners manual states it should be a 10amp fuse, however there is a 20 amp fuse in it and, in the chiltons it states a 20 amp fuse.  You are correct in the location in the fuse block under the hood.  It appears there is a red w/ white stripe wire that connects to this fuse and the wire appears to be in good shape.

Answer
Hi Wendy,
I assume that you do have the '98 model year vehicle and that it has a wide crosswise box. If so the one fuse that has a red/white wire is in the front row at the outside end of a row of 6 fuses. It is supposed to be 30 amp. And it powers the powertrain controlled and the automatic shutdown relay. Is that what is blowing, and is there any indication on the box itself or the lid as to the size of fuse that is supposed to be in the socket which possibly is labelled 'N'?
If so, then get a 30 amp fuse and see if that solves the problem. If not, then tell me more descriptively about where this fuse is specifically located, and if the box is as I described it.
