seanl82 23 Posted January 28, 2017 Wow, lucky escape there by the sound of it! What size fuse are you using for it? It should blow long before a relay melting if it's drawing that much current. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carrots 1 Posted January 28, 2017 I should think it's a 10 fuse or the proper size it should be.been told wires might be melted on back of fuse box.i hate electrics Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jackswan2013 10 Posted January 28, 2017 See some of them are saying heated seats and circuit breaker others say load reduction ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cressa 44 Posted January 28, 2017 I thought the heated seat relays were behind the passenger rear door card !! Does your car have heated seats? If not, that rules that out quite easily Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carrots 1 Posted January 28, 2017 No not got heated seats nor electric windows.the relay is for wipers and heater blower Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
