It either a bad connection or the heater motor or resister pack is on it's way out.

The fuse is doing it's job and blowing when to much current is being drawn through that circuit .

You'll need to get it checked out by an auto spark or somebody who knows there way around it.

Don't what ever you do put a higher rated fuse in there, It won't blow and may catch fire..... Motor's can pull a fair bit of juice.

Alot of the grief people are having just now is down to road wash.

The salt water being thrown up and around our motors is unreal, And it's conductive so any that finds it way into joints and connections track and cause's all problems.

You may find as it dries out things will get better.

I'm doing lots of rear lights that are knackered by road wash just now.
