Thank you for the diagram. I did the following as suggested:

Quote:
Remove the wire off both the small solenoid terminals and then as Randy suggests try grounding just the top solenoid. If the fuse blows again, you may have a bad down solenoid or possibly because of a problem the motor has wound around too far and is overloading & blowing the fuse because it can't move anything.

I didn't hear the motor. I just heard a few clicks, and then the fuse blew again. I think I have a bad down solenoid. I don't have power to the small terminal on the down solenoid, but I do have power to the small terminal on the up solenoid. I think the down solenoid is bad because there is not power registering at that solenoid's small terminal. Should I have power to both small terminals?
