The Radio/Lights fuse blows intermittently. I have gone from 20A to 30A and the 30A will still blow after a few days. A Sony CD player was installed over a year ago and everything else is still factory. I pulled the CD Player to inspect the wires and all was fine and the 10A fuse in the radio is still fine. What can I check to find this problem?

sounds like you have a power wire touching somewhere. Odd thigns can make fuses blow.

Example: If ya use butt splice crimp connectors, tape them up. I had a customer who didnt, and everyonce and awhile, the one for his power would slip over and hit his antenna plug. Fuse pop, but everything looked fine.

My suggestion: Take another look.

I had that happen a little while ago, it's probably of an exposed connectin hanging somewhere and it bumps the frame when you drive. That's why it doesn't immediately blow, you gotta hit a bump so it touches. Annoying because things like that are really hard to find.
