My aux circuit has blown a fuse twice now in the last 30 days. I suppose it could be coincidence, but it seems a little fishy. There's not much to the Aux circuit, so I'm a little mystified. One thing that came to mind is that maybe the wrong fuses are in there. The existing fuses are FRN fuses (the same as on the compressor side). I'm wondering that given it's a purely resistive load if maybe a NON or LPN series fuse would be a better fit.
By the way, there's no label anywhere that states what type of fuses SHOULD be installed there (or even what amperage for that matter. I just keep putting in 60s)

Bump, Anyone have any idea about what would cause fuses to blow in the aux circuit?
Also, why are service manuals so hard to come by for A/C units (specifically Rheem units).
