Got this car with 84,000 miles no issues. About 6,000 miles later it randomly stalled and I found a blown fuse (#3 of the starter red 10) replaced it an all good. Then about 3,000 miles later it kept doing it an left me stranded. Came back a day later ran fine but randomly does it. But if I start it then take the red 10 out it will not shut off. I got codes for knock sensor and some other things but I don't know where to start.

Good morning,

I attached the fuse diagram for you to view. Can you please identify the fuse you remove and the one that failed?

I attached some guides for the stalling for you to review.

Once I identify the fuse failing, I can help you narrow the reason for the stalling.

I currently have a P0341 crankshaft position sensor code, and the fuse that I take out when it stalls controls the chime also.

I need to know the fuse that is failing so we can proceed.

It’s the 10 amp chime fuse.

I attached the fuse diagram. That fuse controls all the items highlighted. You will need to disconnect the items one at a time and see which one is causing the fuse to fail. As you disconnect each item, replace the fuse and see if it fails.
