Default F12x coil fuse keeps blowing

2006 Aquatrax F12x...been trouble free up until yesterday. Cruisin along and it just shutdown...towed it home and found the coil fuse (7.5amp) blown. Replaced it and it started up fine. Ran it for 20 minutes this morning and it did the same thing. Anyone have ideas on potential causes?
Thanks!

look for any corrosion in your wiring, and also look for any frayed wires, blowing a fuse usually is caused by short to ground, but can be many things, start with the simple stuff first. good luck keep us posted.

Default Good news...problem found.

So I took my F12x to the dealer and at first they thought it was the spark plugs...changed 'em out and no improvement. They called the Honda folks and they advised then to check the wiring at the front of the engine...seems it can rub on one of the engine bolts there, at the top of the red cover. Sure enough, it had rubbed through the wiring harness and was causing a short each time I hit a bigger wave. Fixed me up and ziptied it out of the way...back in business!
