Pontiac Grand Am 1999 Fuse Box

There is about 116k miles on the car. Anyways when i bought it recently the power locks didnt work. I looked into fixing it and went into the fuse box and saw that the fuse for it was a 10R one. i replaced it with a new one and upon inserting the new one a small hole from below emitted flames! i quickly took the new one out. I figure both fuses are now broken. what should i do? PLEASE HELP

When you finish trying to light it on fire, the short is going to have to be found and repaired and since you apparently have no electrical background, you will have to pay someone to do it for you.

The short should be really easy to find now that you saw where the flames were coming from.

Why don't you send it to the shop while you still have a car. You don't understand electrical issues enough to fix this.

You need to trace the circuit that the fuse protects. You'll need a wiring diagram and possibly a connector location chart. You can trace a dead short very easily with the right equipment.

kidkoska12 : I apologize for making fun of this with the graphics. My take on something like that if you normally just replaced a blown fuse that you can see the "U" wire inside is blown the short or overload would be AFTER the fuse and blow (normally) the next one if all was plain normal and this quite apparently isn't.
Not sure what you did but suspect the problem lurks with a fuse in there or not on the UNFUSED side. I wouldn't even bump the fuse box right now and get help telling the shop what happened and let them figure it out.
It isn't worth causing more damage IMO to play with this as it should never be able to do that and fuse box itself may be at fault??
Needs pro help as already said,
