one of the things controlled by fuse 5 is electronic engine controls.did you connect radio to some other connection other than the original wires for the becker?

Thumbs up

Sounds like an issue you caused in the wiring of the radio.

Start by pulling out the junk headunit and rechecking everything.

what we did was run new wires for the sony radio . every time i crank the car it bolws #5 fuse. then i have to take the negative post off the battery re attach it then replace the fuse it will start but it is going to not start again once you shut it off.
