OK, the IC sprayer could be: you spilled coffee, or soda in the console,and you bumped it, in the "on" position. Happened to me many times.

What fuse are you replacing?

What does the cover say the fuse is for? It says "ENGINE"? How many amp fuse? Or is it a relay "box"?

If you find that out, you know what is shorting out. Wherever that fuse goes to. I will try to look.

Is this one in the photo the same fuse you are talking about?

Easy fix if this is your "fuse"

Blowing fuses
