Current reversed on compressor spike controller

For some odd reason, the spike controller that runs to our compressor continually blows its fuse when we are turning. All connections are sound, so we believe that the current on the spike is being reversed. However, we are unsure how this is happening. Is it possible that the motors could be producing feedback to the spike? They suffer a lot of mechanical stress while turning.
