The danged A/C fuse started blowing, after about 5 minutes of run time.

New Compressor and blower motor about 5 years ago. The blower was a brand new Bosch. I did notice that the resistor pack is loose and trying to tighten it resulted in metal fatigue on the fender. It now has a secondary grounding wire connected to it.

What else can cause a large amp draw to blow the fuse besides the compressor and blower motor?

16 amp fuse on an A/C circuit is crazy low, IMHO.
