Blowing rear defrost fuses!
As the title states, my car keeps blowing the 30 amp rear defrost fuse. All the wiring at the hatch seems fine. I am definitely open to suggestions.
Thanks.
Thanks.

That is a new one, I had an electric gremlin blow the fuel pump fuse about 4 times then go away for a few years. There are no scratches on the hatch defroster wires? Nothing grounding out against the hatch?

Lots of things on that rear defroster circuit:
- Power mirrors
- Back up lights
- Rear defroster
- and others?
I forget what else is on there but I had a similar problem twice. Once it was a bad bulb in the backup lights, right now I know it's a short somewhere in the power mirror wiring.

Thanks for the ideas Hugh.
I did put 968 mirrors on it a while back so maybe one of the connections is grounding out against the side of the mirror casing even though I tried to ensure everything was buttoned up.
