Default 93 Eurovan wont start and keeps blowing fuse 15...

It all started about two weeks ago. As I was driving the engined
stalled and would not start back up, so I had it towed. The next
morning the shop called and said it started right back up, but had to
be jumped. They could'nt find any thing wrong with it. So this happened

2 more times usually after 30+ miles. So I took it to VW dealer and
they couldnt find any thing wrong it, but they suggested to change the
throttle body and said they couldnt guaratee that would fix the
problem. I didnt think the that was the problem so I declined service.
On the way home from a close grocery stop it happened again but would
not start back up. I towed it home and changed the ingnition coil, A
few people told me this may be the problem. It did start after I
instaled it but only stayed on for about a minute before dying, while
it was on the oil light was on, I figured this was because I changed
the oil switch and the one advanced auto gave me wasnt the same as the
one I removed, at least it dindnt look like it, it was green and the
one I removed was grey. So now it will not start up at all again, but
every time I turn the ignition to start fuse 15 (engine electronics)
keeps blowing.


PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN......

You ran the engine for a minute with the oil light on? That's living
life on the edge, man!

So, why was the oil pressure switch replaced in the first place? Did
the light fail to come on when the ignition was on and the engine was
off?
