sounds like you have a wire rubbed and it is grounding out prematurely, causing the fuse to blow....

Disconnect the power wire at the heater motor, then turn on your switch. If the fuse still blows, the problem is probably in the switch or wiring. If the fuse doesn't blow, it's probably the heater blower motor.
