Central Locking Fuse Blows

[badley]

Last night my car wouldnt lock with the remote on the key, I could hear the relay working within the dash. I checked the fuse and noticed that it had blown (20A), so I replaced it. After driving to work the same thing happened. It only seems to blow after driving

Can anyone suggest what the problem may be?

There will be a short somewhere I guess..

Maybe water got into the door or something?

Thats probably the first place to look.

Also look, maybe, at the central locking reciever - I know it gets wet in there if sunroof dodgy or aerial leaking.. Im not 100% sure this runs off the Central Locking fuse.. but if it does, and its wet, I can see it blowing it too. (Thats if you use the renault one..)

Just pop the IR reciever off near the light and have a look..
