What you do is to quit putting more fuses in, AND FIND OUT what FAULT in that circuit is CAUSING the fuse to "blow." I've been working on cars and trucks for over 50 years, and I've never heard of an "ignition starter fuse," but I can tell you a few things about fuses. Fuses are designed and intended to provide protection for the wiring system of your vehicle. If TOO MUCH current flows through a wire, it can overheat to the point of starting a fire!!!!! It is the job of the fuse to PREVENT that. When a properly "sized" fuse is in a circuit, it is supposed to allow only a certain calculated maximum amount of current to flow through the circuit. If something happens [like a short circuit] which causes a demand for more current than is safe, the fuse protects the wire by melting [burning out or blowing out],instead of the wire doing the same thing. It DOES NOT MATTER WHAT CIRCUIT it is in, if replacement fuses CONTINUE TO "blow out," that is a POSITIVE SIGN that there is something SERIOUSLY WRONG within that circuit, probably a "short." BEFORE replacing THAT fuse again, it is imperative that you find out what is causing the fuse failure, and FIX IT!!!!! Then, when the fault is properly repaired, replacement fuses WILL NOT BLOW OUT, UNLESS another serious fault occurs.
If it blows when trying to crank, the starter has failed.
It is on the starter.
I had a 96 Stratus that would do that, and it turned out to be that the starter was bad.
It is on the starter
The starter for a 2005 dodge stratus is mounted on the side of the engine. It is over the exhaust system.
Behind the front motormount
Either the starter, or the fuel pump has failed and is pulling too much current. If it blows when cranking, it is the starter, if it blows by just turning the key on it is the fuel pump.
2 bolts
The ignition coil for a 2.5l v6 cost about $140.00 in NL . And at least 3 hours labour. My mechanic can't find the ignition coil on my 99 dodge stratus!!
There are a few things that it could be if you Dodge Stratus wont start on first try. It could be the starter.
2006 dodge stratus 2.4 XST, the crank sensor is located under the starter motor, must be removed the starter motor in order to change this, just now I did that job
Front side of the engine, at oil pan height.
