I bought a 98 GSX. All the mods are my profile. So every time I turn the key to the on position the ignition (moteur) fuse instantly blows. So far whats been done was the wires were all traced up until the center console (haven't traced all those yet) the ECU is fine. I thought there's was success when we connected 2 pins in the ignition switch connector using electrical wire and it didn't blow a fuse so we thought it was the ignition switch so it was replaced yet still blew the ignition fuse instantly when the key goes to the on position and the fuse only blows when the key is in the "on" position. We took out all the relays and fuses under the dash yet it still kept blowing the fuse. The motor was replaced my the dealership and our theory is that when mitsubishi put the new motor in they pinched a wire but i would like to check everything else before pulling the motor. There are 2 gauges (boost and I believe it's an air fuel ratio gauge), and a turbo timer. Does anyone know what can be the cause of this? Or anything else I should check?
