Default Wiper fuse blows immediately upon insertion
My wipers and my door locks won't work so I went to check the fuses in my 2012 JKUR. The 25 amp fuse for rear wiper was blown so I tried replacing that. Each time I stick the fuse into position it fries and arcs. Obviously there is a larger issue here and I was hoping someone could help answer this for me so I can fix it. Thank you very much.

Disconnect your rear wiper plug and check if the wiper motor shorted using a multimeter.
