When you put in drive and sit there awhile the fuse will blow?
Also the dash light is going out. I don't know if its something o. The transmission or if its something in the fuse box. Every time we go into drive it blows after about 30 seconds. Something is telling me its in the selector switch. I've do e blew about 10 fuses. Trying to solve this problem. Now I just turned it on and it just popped again. I'm just stumped.

That fuse runs the instrument cluster and each of the shift solenoids. Unplug them one at a time to see which one does not blow the fuse. Let me know.
