Alternate power recepticles

No power at the alternate power receptacles - 20 amp fuse blown. Replaced with new fuse but blows again?

Short, sweet, but seriously lacking in information... I see from your profile that you have a 1999 so at least that is there. What 20A fuse is blowing? There are a few of them...

RE: Alternate power recepticles

Do you have something plugged into it, when it's blowing? My radar detector kept blowing fuses, until I found a short in the detector wires itself. Cut off a couple of inches, resoldered, and good as new!

In your case, I'm just wondering if it's the vehicle's fault, or a plugged in accessory.
