Default Wiper fuse help!

OK so I cannot find a diagram... I have a 1990 s10 Blazer and the wiper fuses keep blowing. Currently a 20 was in there, it blew after 2 full swipes, I put a 10 in that lasted until I turned it off then back on.

What size fuse SHOULD be in there and if 20 is correct, what should I do?

Thanks!

Interesting. I thought the wiper circuit was on a circuit breaker and not a fuse?

For your year of truck 25 amp is correct

That would explain why the fuses kept blowing! The previous owner didn't know much about trucks.

If you get a good service manual the answers to questions like this are right in there. That's where I found it. Took about 30 seconds. You also might want to check the rest of the fuses. Who knows what's in there. It'd be worse if a fuse of too high a rating were in some spots.
