vr engine fuse keeps blowing

[bang_chong]

Hi guys, just helping out a mate here. His VR wagon has just started blowing engine fuses everytime he tries to start it. Is there someone who has come across the same thing?

Ive got a bodgey wiring diagram for a VR so its a bit hard to follow(its in a haynes manual) ,but from what I can see that fuse is fuse number 25 and it goes to the EFI relay and the ECU.(the VS wiring diagram shows its the same setup the VR also). Maybe try replacing the EFI relay and see what happens then.This relay is under the bonnet near the fuses.

Check the oil pressure switch - they can short internally especially if they've been wet from degreasing and then corroded.

Hi ive tried the relay and the car was fine but for 10mins then it done it again.
