Default Ac blows fuse

When I cut on my ac it blows the fuse immediately, when I turn it to vent with no ac works fine. I tryed unplugging electric radiator cooling fan, not it. Anybody got any ideas what it is? Thanks

What about turning on the vent to floor? Don't know much about it, but i'm sure somebody who does will chime in.

Vent works fine, but ac blows fuse. My electric radiator fan seems to not be cutting on at all, I checked the fan separately worked fine, I think I'll have to wire it up separately.

Does your compressor kick on when you turn on the a/c?

Update: I found the problem with ac fuse blowing, it was a open wire in the dash by radio. So moral of the story is be careful when replacing radio. Haha
