Fuse keeps burning out.

I have a 1995 Jeep Cherokee Sport, and I just put in a Sony CDX-GT24 stereo and now that i have it all hooked up, the fuse keeps burning. I dont know if i have the wrong wires connected or what...

I agree a bare wire or you might have the power antenna or the memory wire hooked up wrong.. Make sure you do not have a bare wire touching another one...

Normally the blue wire is a switch power for an extenal amp a. maybe the antenna. I would tape or put a small wirenut to be sure
