Question Air Bag Light on DASH and fuse blown

What would cause the air bag fuse to blow as soon as I turn on the ignition?

Have tried replacing the fuse and this happens (fuse blows out) each time.

95 3.8L... nearly fully rebuilt.

Re: Air Bag Light on DASH and fuse blown

Obviously a blown fuse comes from an excessive current condition. This could be frayed wire insulation allowing the powered wire to touch the body, or it could be the airbag assembly itself. One way to start is by disconnecting electrical connection at the air bag. That will tell you if the problem is in the wiring or the airbag assembly.

there is also a airbag module that could be bad, usually mounted under dash or inside center console if it has one. wiring to airbag is usually wrapped in yellow insulation covering
