I have a 2003 galant and it blows a 10amp fuse every now and then, this fuse takes care off doom lights, keyless entry, visor mirror lights, radio cd memory. this fuse is located inside the yellow square on the main fuse block under the hood. all the wiring has been checked for shorts, scraps, etc. can't find anything wrong with the wirering. If i lock the car at night with the keyless entry i will find the fuse blow in the morning. this dose not happen all the time. do you have any ideas on what can be the problem.

 

Optional Information:
2003 Mitsubishi Galant 4cyl

Already Tried:
all wiring has been checked for shorts and scraps --nothing found--sometimes it will work for a couple of days and then i will come out to start car and fuse is blown. this is the 8th fuse i have put in, if the car is on the door locks work fine. if car is off keyless entry dose not work at all--i am going nuts as i cannot pin point the trouble because it works sometimes.

Hi Customer (name blocked for privacy). Thank you for asking your question on JustAnswer.

 

The best way to check for this short is unplug every night a different system, like one night unplug the radio other night unplug the keyless entry module.
