Something has got to be shorting out. Check you JLT installation, unplug and plug everything back in. Look for crossed wires....Did you change the MAF with the JLT? Maybe the wires aren't on right.

Something is not installed correctly...otherwise it wouldn't be shorting out and blowing fuses. Your dcts are pretty obvious...

The fuse controls all of the mentioned failures, and without power...they fail, hence the errors. You need to go back and make sure EVERYTHING is plugged in. Unplug it and replug it. This started happening after you installed your JLT and tune, so something must have gone wrong with the install. Pull it all off and put it all back, change the fuses, reload the tune, and try again.

+1
I'd return it to stock... And start over to rule out coincidences
