My truck has a V6 engine first my check engine lighted up the next day I had a oil change on it.
Still my engine light stayed on. That same day my truck started to shake really bad when I came to a stop sign it never did that before.I had the spark plugs and spark plug wires changed and the converter. My mechanic did all this and had the check engine light disapper also the overdrive off light had statrted to blink that also stopped.
He told me the truck was fixed the next day it turned off on me while I was driving and I could not start it up after that. Ihad it towed my mechanic said it blew out the #30 fuse and he changed the fuse and the truck started. But it still shakes when I come to a stop and he said that he looked for a short but could not find one.
And does not know why it blew out the fuse. Can you help me?

If the OD light is flashing, the computer needs scanned to determine why. There is a problem with one of the circuits in the transmission. Next, as far as the 30 amp fuse, there has to be a short, but finding it is the problem. If it blows again, I need you to check to see if there is spark and fuel getting to the engine so we know what circuit is being affected. Additionally, as far as the rough idle, check for vacuum leaks and check the idle air control motor.
