But if you're seeing the fuse blow then I'd assume you have the correct one .....

Re: wipers not working
The wiper fuse was originally on the same fuse as the fan heater, the fan motor commonly begins to seize ( bearings) and can draw more power to try to overcome the extra resistance. So when the wipers are switched on too bang goes the fuse. Try the wipers without the fan going if you already haven't.
