Electrical problem
1998 Plymouth Breeze 4 cyl Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 80,000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
A few months ago the fuse blew in my car and it wouldn't start. I replaced the fuse that starts the car and it ran fine for a few weeks, then it blew again. I replaced the fuse again and a few weeks later the fuse blew again, now it blows as soon as I try to start it.
I took the car to Advance Auto and they tested the starter and said that it is getting too much amp from the battery and that's what's blowing it.
I told them that I bought a brand new battery 4 months or so ago so I don't think there's anything wrong with the battery.
Any suggestions?
