I have already changed the radiator fan and it still is blowing the 16A fuse. Is there a resistor somewhere I need to check/replace?

Is it blowing the fuse or melting it? Mine melted the radiator fuse twice due to corrosion on the fuse contacts but after attacking them with some sandpaper its not happened since.

it's a 1984 square dash, I am trying to figure out where the resistor is.

The fuse is blowing, but i'll try and clean the contacts later as maybe that's what's causing it?

Hi thanks, I'll have a look at the relay and try to find that resistor.
