03 fuse/trouble
07/06/09 at 02:55:30
 
looking for help... I have a 2003 with 10,000 miles. my wife washed it Wed. rode it 15 miles Thurs and it died. she calls me. Fuse blown put new one in turn on key 4 sec later fuse blows. put new one in instantly blows. get it to my shop on truck let it dry over night, runs for a couple minutes I use every light and switch works fine. we take car for weekend, come home last night and try it. runs ok, put it in gear, fuse blows. What do you suggest I START with? starter cables corroded? in a safety switch somewhere? just a bare wire somewhere?

It is suspicious that this started after washing...

Maybe pull the seat and tank and do some connector cleaning/drying.  While you're there, jiggle wires and look for rub marks.

Try this to find a short....
"Replace the fuse with a small 12v lamp.  It will light.  When you clear the short the light will go out."
Method recommended by Paladin

I'd rather have one
big one than four
small ones.

Definitely check the connector blocks under the seats. Sounds like you did some cooking under there.
