Default Amp blew fuses then turn signals wont work

anyone had this problem? this is not on my s2000, its on a 03 civic si.

it is not the 7.5 amp fuse for the signals, it isnt the underhood fuse.

im about to order the relay but i figured id ask before i spent the money

it shouldnt. im just wondering if anyone has had a relay coil burn up before the fuse (that is supposed to protect it) blows.

somehow something in my wiper circuit got surged with more amps than normal, or maybe just by chance a relay went out at the exact time i hooked the amp up. thats unlikely

just wondering if im missing something here. just doesnt make sense especially since it is in a entirely different circuit.

this is probably in the wrong thread. maybe under the hood would be better?

who installed everything? Are you running the OEM headunit? If not then someone is probably getting amp turn on from somewhere they shouldn't.

Is your remote power wire for the amp hooked into your fuse box? if it was hooked into the wrong side of the fuse and came in contact with your power wire its no bueno...
