Figure out what that fuse controls and look for something drawing excess amps by disconnecting items on at a time.

SOURCE: 30 amp ignition fuse in engine compartment blows at start

It sounds like a bad ignition switch or something is grounding out.Try to isolate the problem to key positions.See if the fuse blows when you turn the key to ACC(when your dash lights come on without starting)If the fuse does not blow then when you go to start it and it blows it could be one of many problems,the more common ones could be ignition switch,wiring,starter relay,starter soleniod,or perhaps the starter itself is shorting out,this can sometimes happen when a starter goes bad.

SOURCE: fuel pump wont run and keep blowing a fuse in the front fuse box

The power wire to your fuel pump must be shorting out somewhere. Disconnect it and see if your fuse still blows. If not, then follow the wire all the way back to the fuel pump, and look for a bare spot. Good luck!

SOURCE: radiator cooling fan 30 amp. fuse keep blowing

The fan may run with jumper wires but if it''s blowing the 30 Amp Maxifuse it's needs a new or used fan motor.It's pulling too many amps.I have almost never seen a fan relay concern.Only other thing you may check is the wiring down near the fan shoud I have seen the 2 wires get loose from the conduit & melt onto exhaust manifold.Hope tHis Helps

2008 saturn vue random/multiple misfire

A random/multiple misfire in a 2008 Saturn Vue can be caused by a variety of issues. Some common causes of misfires include:
  1. Spark plugs or ignition coils: Worn or fouled spark plugs or faulty ignition coils can cause a misfire. These components should be checked and replaced if necessary.
  2. Fuel system: A clogged fuel injector or a problem with the fuel pump can cause a misfire. The fuel pressure should be checked and any clogged injectors should be cleaned or replaced.
  3. Vacuum leaks: Leaks in the vacuum system can cause a misfire. These leaks should be located and repaired.
  4. Exhaust system: A clogged catalytic converter or a problem with the exhaust manifold can cause a misfire. These components should be inspected and any necessary repairs should be made.
  5. Engine control module (ECM): A problem with the ECM can cause a misfire. The ECM should be checked and reprogrammed if necessary.
It's recommended to have the vehicle scanned with a diagnostic scanner to retrieve the trouble codes and determine the source of the problem. Once the codes are retrieved, it would give a better idea of what component is causing the misfire.
It's always recommended that you take your vehicle to a professional mechanic to diagnose and fix the problem, as these are complex systems and require specialized knowledge and equipment to fix.

My saturn vue 2008 hatch i add open & in locked mode, it xoes not respond to key ?

GM usually puts a mechanical release for there electric doors, but it seems they did not for that model. And the door panel is impossible to remove without destroying it in the process. BUT you can pull it loose in the middle and gain access (very carefully) without breaking the panel.

I suggest seeking some one that has experience in this matter to solve the issue, as inexperience may cause your rear panel to be broken appart.

2009 Saturn Vue Hybrid 1400 getting 18 mpg instead of avg of 28

Do you normally accelerate quickly from stopped? You can increase your cars mileage by cutting down on rapid starts and stops. A comparable Honda Accord Hybrid rated at a higher 25city 37 hwy MPG rating achieves less than 22mpg when driven HARD

Poor gas mileage in a 2008 Saturn Hybrid Vue

You are always going to get worse gas mileage with E85 than regualr gasoline.  My sister has a colbalt and she mixes 1/2 gas and 1/2 e85.  The dealer told her she could do this to improve mileage.  I would not try it in your car unless you check with the dealer first, it could mess your engine up if you do it.  If you are getting that mileage with gasoline, then i would change spark plugs to bosch platnium 2 or something that allows more spark.
