There's ample evidence on the forum that heat is definitely a result of high current across those fuses. The problem is so bad on the blower motor that M/B has a completely separate shunt to bring the power outside of the box.
Although clean contacts are certainly beneficial, the temperature issue with high current draw is not going to be eliminated.
