If you keep replacing the fuse then there is a problem. You really need to diagnose and fix the cause of the problem. Band-Aiding the problem with a higher rated fuse will shorten the life of your expensive HID ballast.

Most likely you have something putting out too many amps, or you have a loose ground or a short to ground somewhere.
Check for a short curcuit somewhere in the wiring. Look at the fuse and use the manual to tell u what the fuse is used for. Then when u find out what it protects go around the car and look at those components and see if theres a frayed wired hitting the car chassis or something. A short curcuit will cause ur fuse to blow.
