Hi Integrafan_08,

You mean fuse #24 (15 A)?

ACG fuse. Components that uses this fuse are
1. SRS
2. PGM-F1 relay.
3. TCM
4. VSS.
5 Cruise control
6. ELD.

Shorint of any of the above components or their wiring can cause the blown fuse.

When this fuse blows, power is not being supplied to the distributor so it definitely would not be providing any sparks.


You need to isolate the cause from the list I posted earlier. It could be the distributor but I think an exposed wire is more likely.
