Aerio with Fuse issue

timalan · 02-06-2008, 01:09 PM

Hi all, New to the forum.
Is there a FAQ section?
I am having issues with the 20 amp fuse controlling the wiper motors.
They seem to work fine. every couple of days they quit. Works for an entire day and then the next time fuse blown. Replace it and they work for that day. Then next time blown again?
Any known issues? its an '05 Aerio with 56k miles.
Thanks.

Hey Bud. We own a 2006 aerio. Only had issue with the wiper fuse once. My gf turned on the wipers but they were frozen onto the windsheild. My tech advised me that there is a mechanism that will blow the fuse if there is too much strain on the wiper, to avoid burning out the motor. You didn't indicate if this was the case with your machine. ( of course, this might be the case with all vehicles now. I am not all that mechanically savvy.)I just thought that I would throw it out there, incase it helps.
Peace

The first time it was frozen. The others she claims NO.
I told her to make sure they were off. when she parked so if they did freeze it wouldn't blow anymore.??
