<p>If the fuse is hot you might find a switch or accessory that is
also warm..as others have noted it may simply be at the fuse
block.. I'm also curious about your measured 14.5V which is higher
than expected. Is the battery connected to a storage charger? DP<br>

<div>Any where there is high resistance it will create heat.
So if there is a bad connection at one of the fuse terminals
the connector will get warm. And since it is not a dead
short it may not blow the fuse.</div>

Pull the fuses out and check the they are clean connections,
the clips are holding fuse tight in place.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">I had a similar problem years ago.
After changing fuses, etc without making a difference I
found the problem was a poor connection between the fuse
and the fuse holder. I replace the fuse box and that
fixed the problem.</p>
