It is probably your steering unit, the motors burn up inside and it causes the unit to keep blowing fuses.

Here is a wiring diagram of the system so you can see the components and how they are wired. (below)

Just in case though unplug the controller and see if the fuse still blows.

Here is the location

Please let us know what happens.

Cheers, Ken
