so im getting closer to identifying this issue. i took some time to look over all connections and hoses and found something very odd. first i did a test to identify exactly what fuse 24 directly regulates by pulling the fuse and checking the codes. p025a and u0109 (i believe). long story short i cleared the codes, put the fuse back, and disconnected a connector for the fuel system (not entirely sure what it is but more on that later). check the codes and they are identical. im gonna post some pics so you can see what im talking about.

sorry for individual pics, my phone is weird.

took me WAY too long to figure out that this is exhaust cam position sensor. is there any reason the connector would be this wet? and would that cause the fuse to blow?

How much rain have you gotten recently? Maybe the cowl isnt sealing right on its edge to the windshield or hood??

Hmm how did that get oil in it?? I wonder if an oil seal on the sensor failed and it fed through the body of it into the plug. It looks clean all the way around it.

how did you resolve this problem?? please answer i have exact same problem...
the blown fuse or the sensor with oil in it? the sensor (to my knowledge) had nothing to do with the fuse blowing but i still dont know where the liquid came from.

the fuse was being blown because i have a 2jr intake that would slap the connector for the vvt solenoid. im back on the stock intake for now until i can fix it.

hope this helps

Solid engine mounts will help stop the engine movement and therefore stop smacking the intake into the sensor.

I have the awr 88A durometer mount and powerflex tranny and passenger engine mounts still have an issue with engine movement.... Actually almost poked a hole in my ITG crossover from it. I ended up padding the cables and the area that contacts the intake. Hasn't gotten any worse since.
