Consumer Description

FUSE 8 UNDER HOOD, 20A FUSE. CHRYSLER HAS A COUPLE OF BRANCH CIRCUITS DOWNSTREAM OF THIS AND COLLECTIVELY AN INCREASED LOAD CONDITION CAUSES AN OVERLOAD ON STARTUP ONLY. INSTANT BURN FUSE CANT COPE. THE PROBLEM IS DESIGN, THERE ARE 4 CIRCUITS FED DOWNSTREAM ON THAT FUSE, IF THE COLLECTED LOAD BUILDS SOME RESISTANCE IT WILL EXCEED THE CAPACITY OF THE FUSE. I AM CURRENTLY CHANGING THE FUSE DAILY JUST TO START MY CAR AND GO. AND SOMETIMES HAVE TO CHANGE IT AGAIN BEFORE LEAVING MY DESTINATION. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE BY RESULTING TO GOOGLE AND THERE ARE COUNTLESS OTHER PEOPLE WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD NOT TO PUT A LARGER FUSE IN THERE FOR IT MAY CATCH FIRE BECAUSE OF NOT ALLOWING THE FUSE TO BLOW WHEN IT NEEDS TO BLOW. IT SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER SET UP AND TO BE NOT ACTUALLY ANYTHING BROKEN WITH MY CAR. WHAT DO I DO?
