Default Wiper Fuse keep blowing

Hi, My AUII has blown 2 wiper fuses in the last 2 days. So nothing works off the wiper stick (washers or Wipers) Just wondering if anyone else has come across (and fixed this). After a long hot summer here in Melbourne it has decided to rain a bit and I would like to see out the windscreen occasionally

Yup pretty comon.. Check out the wiring near the washer motor, there is a wire in the loom there that rubs through on the reciever drier on the A/c (the big black round thing) u will see it pretty easly, if its not on that it wil lbe somthing near there.. (had this happen on a few cabs)
But of course could be anything else.. but its a start

This has happened on mine on and off for 2 years. I usually just fiddle with the wiring near the wiper motor, and it seems to stop blowing fuses for a while, then all of a sudden we go through 2 or 3 in a week, and then it's fine again. Will check out the washer bottle wiring as anything's possible!
