i recently checked my ac compressor connection and the fuses and the ac fuse is blown. i then replace the fuses after i unplugged the ac compressor cord and then plugged it back in. the fuces again blown out. wat does this mean and how can i fix it? do i have to get another ac compressor or can i just replace the clutch coil?

thanks

check first to see if there is a short in the wire going to the compressor. disconnect the wire on the compressor. put a piece of tape over the end, replace the fuse and see if it blows out when you try to use ac, if it does then there is a short other than the compressor or clutch, if the fuse does not blow out reconnect the wires and see if it happen again
