    you mean the main efi fuse keeps popping? means you have some component that the ecm powers up shorting, the wiring to the ecm is shorting or the ecm itself is smoked. Honestly there is no common reason for this you are kinda gonna have to start tracing wires and see whats chewed up.

    x2........ start tracking wires. good way to check is to unplug all fuses except the efi and see what else in the fuse box has power....

    Also to save fuses wire in a circuit breaker into the fuse slot. It's what I do at work, makes it much easier and saves time.

    You know when you found the short when it stops clicking on and off
