I have a 2004 Pontiac Grand AM. The ac fuse keeps blowing as soon as I put one in. What could be causing this?

Hello,

Nine times out of ten when this happens is becasue of a shorted ac compressor clutch coil. Try unplugging the compressor and installing a new fuse. If the fuse is okay then replace the compressor which are pretty cheap on Amazon.
