I'm sure this issue has been addressed in this for I'm already, if somebody knows where it is please redirect me there.

I have a '94 dakota, 318, 4x4 with 250,000+ miles. The automatic shutdown fuse keeps blowing. I replaced the distributor cap & rotor, no fix. Other than opening up all the wiring harnesses and chasing wires in circles for the next week dose anyone have any suggestions where would be a good place to start looking for a short/bad wiring?

 

Take a look at the FAQ page "Truck will not start". It has a link to this page https://dodgeforum.com/forum/1st-gen...ml#post1678925

 

I fix it. The O2 sensor wires were rubbing on the front drive shaft and shorted out there.
