Get out a meter or test light and see how far you have power as you move away from the battery, starting with main fuse.

Main fuse would be something to check, as would the battery terminal connections.
I'd also check the battery voltage both before and after you turn the ignition on. A battery can sit at a normal voltage until any amount of load is put on it (even just turning on the ignition) and then drop to zero. |

There's something causing excessive current draw. It could be a wire that got its insulation chewed through and is touching the frame, or a defective switch. Once I had a rear brake light switch go bad and randomly blow fuses. I ended up replacing the fuse with a non-auto-reset circuit breaker so at least I didn't have to carry a dozen fuses with me to go for a ride. I eventually found the bad switch when it became obvious that the fuse seemed to blow only when I used the rear brake.

I'm not sure I follow that, Hernan. The starter motor isn't fused, so it can't be causing fuses to blow.

The starter solenoid is supplied through the main fuse, so if it has a problem it could blow the fuse when attempting to start the engine.

If the fuse on the starter solenoid isn't blown does this mean the solenoid OK . I keep popping the 10 amp ignition fuse.

If you're blowing the 10A fuse, it means something after that is drawing too much current. As I said, look for chewed insulation, a faulty switch, etc..
No need to start a new thread. It'll make your answers spread out in two places. |

HOWEVER... don't just toss a 30amp fuse in there- if it's supposed to be a 10 amp fuse then it will not offer the protection it was designed for. |
