Nothing has been added or changed in terms of the electrical system. I'm still using the factory head unit as well.

You have a short somewhere, start checking wires.

Try a higher fuse rating, maybe 5-10amps higher. possible short somewhere that is causing this. What other electrical mods do you have? Stereo/ alarm, amps speakers that are not hooked up properly?

Please don't ever post this again. The reason there is that gauge fuse is so the wire doesn't glow red hot, when it shorts, and burn the car down. Find the short. it sounds like it's in the remote system.

So we got the trunk to open with the fob but the doors won't lock or unlock. Apparently something wasn't assembled properly on the latch when they reinstalled everything.
