This is a repost, as I'm really baffled by the eccentric electrics in my Disco. My 96 D1 has a fuse blowing problem. The auxiliary fuse (20A, no. 6 on the upper satellite of the drivers side fusebox, protects the CD changer, Radio, interior light, trailer socket and clock) keeps blowing. I can replace the fuse, everything works fine, but as soon as I start the engine, the fuse blows again. Any talented people out there with an idea about what's going on? Thanks for all help. It's an emergency really; I need the CD player to drown out the noise from the TDi motor and sundry rattles and squeaks! Tim

Tim, it could be any of those things that the fuse is for. I would dissconnect, if you can, one of those at a time try to track down the problem. I would start with the trailer socket.
