My condenser fan is good when connected directly to battery but when I connect it to the circuit, the 10A fuse blows. Can you tell me what other parts that can be shorted?

    Check for damaged wires that may be shorting to ground near the front of the car, fan shroud area. The only things I see on this circuit are wires going to the heater controls, air conditioning switch, the pressure switch, condensor fan relay and then out to the fan. The black wire at the fan goes to ground. Ignition off the Blue wire at the fan should not have continuty to ground or the is a short. The blue wire goes directly back to the relay. The blue wire should have 12v when a/c is on.
