The fuse for the blow motor/turn signal keeps blowing out. have replaced it numerous times, however as soon as the ignition is turned, the new fuse blows. The check engine light also came on the last time i replaced the fuse. Not sure what to do next...Any information would be greatly appreciated.

It sounds like you have a short to ground, which will cause the fuse to blow.

Yep, I agree with RASMATAZ, I would remove the turn signal bulbs and inspect the bulb socket which can melt and cause this issue. Please go over this guide which can show you what I mean.
