[DML] Fuse 5 keeps blowing, idle speed motor not vibrating...





After my starter took a dump last month, I installed an Autolite
starter built for an Eagle Premier, and it works beautifully.  Much
smaller, easier to install, and it makes a way cooler sound when it's
cranking :)  Best part, it only cost me $120.  

Whilst I was still trying to make the old starter work, one of the
times that I was cranking it, I suddenly heard a very rapid *CLICK
CLICK CLICK CLICK* coming from underneath the dash, and just at that
moment my #5 fuse blew.  Since replacing the starter, my #5 fuse keeps
blowing every time I turn the key to the ON position, and my idle
speed motor no longer vibrates.  Could these things be related?  I
notice that there's a LUCAS relay under the dash, could this be the
problem?  I have yet to check the voltage at the idle speed motor plug.

Interestingly, if I turn the key to the ON position, then replace the
#5 fuse, my dash instruments will work fine, but if I turn the key
off, and then back on, the fuse will then blow.  

thanks,

Matt
