I'm not sure which fuse your talking about, the fuse for the ASD relay is 25 amp fuse, is that the one?

Does the fuse blow as soon as you plug it in, do you have to turn the key on? Does it not blow till after you try to start it?

Your saying the vehicle won't start when the fuse blows? If the fuse is for the asd relay, you can double check by unplugging the relay, use a testlite on the terminals where the relay plugs in, see if any are hot?

If the problem is on the asd relay circuit, I'd try unplugging the 02 sensors, see if that makes any difference.

Can you check for troublecodes?
