If it was a short, would that not blow the new fuse too?

Well, it didn’t just “let go”. Something put greater than 30 amps through that line or the commensurate amount of resistance/ heat to melt the fuse.
Very well could be something that’s intermittent or “brewing”. I chased an issue where my engine would intermittently decide it didn’t want to shut off. Weeks of trouble shooting including replacement of key switch ect. Finally grabbed a thermal imager camera and found a mass of melted wires right after the engine bay wire harness block. Would never have found it without the camera. Point is, we know several things. 1. A 30 line fuse blew leading to a micro processor. 2. That micro processor is now wonky. 3. Power spikes and or heat kill micro processors. 4. Micro processor’s don’t create electrical charges.
Coincidence? Perhaps but I would focus my attention on your work, not the company’s.
Hope you get yourself up and running soon!
Happy 4th!

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world.
