If its the same fuse that was working for a long time, and now it blows everytime that means there is a short or an overload. Check the wires, check the ground. If you did the install yourself, you should know if something looks wrong. If not, you may need to talk to who did it.

Damn that sucks man ..at the same time it makes me fell better I payed the extra $$$ to have it professionally done and they said if anything go wrong due to there wiring they will fix it for free so it like paying for a warranty on the wiring. They soldiered and heat skinked the wires on top of that.

From experience I know all it takes is a wire to come lose and touch something it not suppose to, to short out a fuse.
