ok.....so i went ahead and tried a higher amp fuse. tried the 25A, and the wipers worked once then it blew haha.
put in a 30A, and they work now. so im guessing the spike is just barely over 25A.
so i have a 30A in there right now. should i keep it in? or is this going to fry or screw up wiring in the future??

So do you want to know how to fix your problem or not? Here in the professional automotive technician trade, we use a tool called a multimeter to solve electrical problems. We don't put higher amperage fuses in, that's what hacks do. And yes, it will cause a fire. I don't care if you believe me or not, it's the truth. You don't have to take my word for it, as you are hell bent on using a 30A fuse in a 20A rated circuit. Some people have to learn the hard way.

And I said circuit not circuit board.
