Hey y'all,
Every time I put a fuse in my 3 for the blower motor, the fuse blows within five minutes. The blower motor seems plenty strong when the fuse is there and the car has great heat, but I can't stop and plug in a new 30-amp fuse every five minutes. I replaced the resistor because the fan only worked on one setting; that problem is fixed, but the fuse still melts. A friend suggested a new blower motor, but I thought I should see if you BMW veterans out there know what to do before I purchase a new one.
Thank you.
