Re: Could a magnetic field around CIMs cause fuses to blow?
How did you prevent backfeed? I don't think the motor is powering it, I think it's a short. Disconnect the input side and rerun the test, then if it doesn't do anything, disconnect the output side wires and reattach the input side.

Also, I didn't notice the picture before, but you are grounding the electrical system to the frame, something I don't believe you are alowed to do. Disconnect your groundstrap and see if the problem dissappears. The groundstrap could turn a harmless short of one of the terminals into a nightmare.
