i turn key and poof there goes my Eng fuse (15A)

Ok here is the history. i bought this car, once a 1.6L 4cyl auto. was swapped for a 1.8L V6 std, and though it ran poor it ran. Turns out some of the vacuum system was broken/missing, so i replaced it, as i was peering around under the dash i noticed the wireing was from the 1.6 auto and it had an alarm system rigged up. now the alarm had 4 relays and there were 2 Bosch relays also added into the mix, and since i dont have the remote for the alarm, i could do without it so i removed evrything including the 2 bosch reays that were obviously not part of the car (none of the wires matched anything and both were identical and wired together)

Now when i turn on my key i pop the Engine fuse, therefore get no spark and no running car. Any ideas?

Did you reconnect any wires? I would of advised you go to an alarm installer and have them remove the parts. Search Viper alarms. Someone did a post a couple of months ago about alarms, they use to install them. They could help you with this one I think.

im sorry mate but I got to laught.... lol

I had the same thing happening to me , well close to, lol

ok Ill explain what i did in my case.....

So you take everithing off, and connect the colour wires from your key ign place, now cuz you swaped a V6, the wiring is a little different and im sure of it.... Look under the dashboard and see where thouse wires are goin. Because i know that mine went to a MAZDA relay and went somewhere after. If you don't have that relay, that might be your problem....

THats what i think it is, cuz my dad has told this could happen if you don't have a good relay for the starting wires...

Hope this helps.
