Hey, mine did the same thing, ended up being a short in the motor. Got a new motor from arb for about $55 i think it was.

Some times it aint worth the stuffing around :roll:
Cheers

Hi all...Mine also kept blowing fuse,the motor was seized.There not waterproof,and rust and seize.You can pull the motor apart and fix it easy enough.then fully waterproof it yourself.
