Default AC Fuse keeps blowing

My AC Stopped working a few days ago and today my car started to overheat. I checked the #1 fure on the engine compartment (AC clutch, aux. water pump) and it was blown. I replaced it and drove for a few blocks with the AC on and it stopped working again, blowing hot air. Can anyone help me as to why the fuse keeps blowing? Thanks.... I searched and could not find anything... please help as to what I can check..... btw... i have a 2000 s-type V8

I replaced the fuse again and this time it seemed to work. Maybe the first fuse that i tried was bad??
Does anyone think that this might have also been the cause of my overheating today?
The manual does say that the #1 fuse is for the AC clutch and the aux water pump.... any ideas???

Are you replacing the blown fuses with new fuses of the proper amp rating? If you're using fuses of lesser amps, that could be your problem....
