not a loose ground but a short to ground somewhere. Symptoms of a loose ground is it may work intermittently or with some kind of bump to the unit. Short to ground means there is a positive lead somewhere that is touching ground where it should not thus, consistently blowing fuses. Like greenciv05 said you are possibly pinching a wire.Re-check your wiring.
