This is a 1994 Wranger Renegade with a 4.0 liter 6 and a 5-speed. My instruments/gauges don't work. At first they would shut down when i hit a hard bump; the 15 amp fuse in the #9 position blew. I replaced the fuse 3 times. Now the fuse blows the instant I turn on the ignition. There are two circuits off this fuse: one, the dark blue/white wire, runs the instruments/gauges and a few other systems such as the back-up lights. The other circuit runs the ignition switch. Is it possible that there is a short in the ignition switch that is causing the fuse to blow?
