#5 Fuse is blowing after jumpstarting another vehicle

2017 Honda Accord.  Our son jump started another vehicle.  Now the #5 (Meter) fuse by the drivers left knee blows, but only after moving around 30-50 feet in Reverse.  Stepping on brake or slipping A/T into Reverse doesn’t trip it.  Only when vehicle is actually moving backwards.

Well I would assume since it has to be moving and there's something to do with some wiring was damaged and once it starts moving backwards the wire moves and shorts itself out. So start by checking around the area of the battery where he jump started. It maybe a wire got damaged


All wires look good around battery, and vehicle will drive indefinitely in FWD. it only blows after vehicle travels about 10 to 20 feet in reverse. I’m stumped!

Is there a description of what the fuse does in your owner's manual?
