This. The wires coming out of the 02 sensor are contacting the heat shield and blowing the fuse. Happened to me a few times.

A piece of metal that blocks or redirects heat from a certain area.

Like the heat shield on the bottom of this catalytic converter:

Thanks, but I asked where.
Now it makes it seem more complicated if there's more than one.

Oh, definitely misread that.

I think he's talking about the heatshield that surrounds the downpipe.

Ah, okay. Makes sense. Pretty sure I saw an 02 sensor there when I was changing my clutch anyway.

Thanks.
