Looks like he determined it to be a voltage exchange between one of the sparkplug wires and the harness since they were smashed together.

it'* possible one of your shift solenoids is out of spec...

and i can get you diagrams, but they won't show you where it'* routed or what runs next to it, just the circuits themselves.

measure the resistance between pins F and ground, and E and ground at the trans plug. with trans temp at ~68*F, you should get between 20-30 ohms. if either of those are lower than 20, they can blow a specific fuse... which one keeps going anyways? i can't remember TCC and TCC PWM resistance offhand, but considering it'* happening sitting still, i don't think those would cause it, but who knows...test them anyways and i'll look for the numbers.

How did you figure out that is where the problem is coming from?
