continuity, remove the harness from the air
heater terminal and check continuity
between the harness and ground. In case of
continuity, main harness may have a short
circuit. Replace it. In case of no continuity,
replace the fuse. If the fuse burns out again,
the main harness may have a short circuit.
Replace it.
