The only thing that blows a fuse is overcurrent. More than likely by grounding out. If your headunit was blowing 15a fuses, whatever was wrong with it would be obvious.
I left the radio unplugged for 2 whole days and the fuses stayed good.. then when I plugged it back it the fuse lasted about 15 secs.. I havn't had a chance to mess with it some more, but I think there is a wire knicked somewhere because when the CD player is sticking out not screwed into the brackets everything works fine, but when I shove it back in, the fuse goes. I'll have to try to look at it on Wed or Thur next week, my next days off.. thanks for the help
