Check your IC pipes and then reset your ECU.

Check your o2 sensor housing on your exhaust near the test pipe. When I installed my HKS TBE, the o2 sensor wires were rubbing on the exhaust shield underneath the car and grounded out numerous times. I just put some heat resistant silicon on the exposed wires and dented back the exhaust shield so it wouldn’t rub anymore. This fuse I believe is in the #8 slot under the hood, it’s a 20 amp fuse. If that’s the one that keeps blowing, this could be your problem. Any other questions, feel free to ask.

Oh and this problem if diagnosed by a shop through a machine will tell you it’s the crankshaft sensor, but my problem turned out to be this wire grounding out.
