1997 xj country Tranny issue

Hey guys!!! New to the forum world and to warn you I have terrible grammar and spelling. But any way.... I have a 1997 cherokee country with a 4.0 and auto tranny. Every time I put it into drive it blows the #11 fuse will start and run fine in park reverse and nuteral but as soon as it goes in park it blows the fuse. Please help. Need to drive it ASAP

Sounds to me like the transmission control module would be the place to start.
