Blown Gauge Fuse (only while driving)

1989 Iroc 5.0 TPI Auto

About 2 weeks ago I'm driving the car and the dash gauges go out.

I put a new fuse in, and it will idle all day without blowing. You can turn the steering wheel and it doesn't blow.

I'm guessing that at about 20mph it will blow.

So, anyone have an idea.

Just by the scenario, it should eliminate many of the things that are on that fuse.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Steve

After much checking and finding nothing, I disconnected the connector to the transmission, and the fuse did not blow while driving.

Taking it back the the tranny shop.

Add some inline fuses of reduced amperage in circuits radiating away from the original fuse which keeps blowing.

That will let you know the problem circuit or part.
