so if something the sensor is broken? wouldn't you get an engine check if a sensor went bad?

 

Guys thank you for the help i saved time and money it was number 8 engine fuse under the hood the 20amp quick fix

 

Glad you got it fixed.

 

mhm was fixed but on way to work today same fuse burned again i had extra so i switched it right away i knew it was the same problem

ok i predict it will happen again soon what should i do to avoid this fuse from blowing again?

would it be some cable somewhere short cutting?

 

Yea man seems like you have something shorted. Get out the Service Manual and trace it out

 

Check that your rear O2 sensor is not hitting the underbody of the car. That is a relatively common place for a short.

interesting

 

I never checked this thread but if you do a search i started something about this a few months back and have helped a cpl other evom members with this problem being the number 8 fuse as mine has done the same thing 3 times! I have brought the car to mitsubishi 4 times and they said there is nothing they can do...they are afraid to call mitsu corporate for the fact they may void my warranty which is almost up anyway. I also cannot get my two step to engage which I believe is an electrical issue with the car!. I am lost as to what is truly causing this problem. Stay in touch with me if this happens again-JOEYD

 

search "repeatedly blown fuse" and you'll find your answer. you likely are running a test pipe with the o2 anitfowler fix.

 

yes I am running this setup but...that fuse is an ecu/pump fuse. Dynoflash Al has never seen it until my car and pretty much everyone you talk to has never heard of this happening. I believe there is something more messed up with the car electrically especially in my case with the two step not engaging as well. I tried a new ECU and still won't work. I hope to find out what the hell the problem is that is causing this-JOEYD
