My Jeep shutoff as I was passing another car on the highway. I called for a tow, the driver got there and said it may be just a fuse. He changed it out and I was on my way for about a half a mile and it blew again. While I was waiting for the tow driver, I hooked up my ODB reader. I've used this many times, but this time, it asked me for year and make of my vehicle. I have replaced fuses and the ASD relay but the fuse still blows when giving full throttle.

Thanks in advance!

Something on that particular circuit is shorting and you are going to have to locate the problem by process of elimination. It may be very difficult to locate. Look over the wiring closely for ay obvious wire damage.
