wires are touching/grounding out somewhere.

Have you done any multimeter readings? ohm out your power wire and I bet it is probably shorting out to a ground. I would double, triple check your wiring job and make sure you hooked it up correctly and that there aren't any wires touching/shorting out. Another thing could be that wiring can't support the current draw or your fuse is too small.
