    Start metering the wiring between the pump and power supply for shorts to ground.

        Bump back from the dead.

        Thought I'd update this incase anyone else has this issue.

        After months of trying to figure out what was going on and turning up empty handed with no successful results I should have done this to begin with.

        Ended up dropping the car off at Tunedub and George was able to fix my problem within a hour. He checked the wiring for the wiper system and found a broke and shafed wiring in the rear hatch. He replaced the wiring and fuses and everything is up and running.
        Seems the back wiper was the cause for the front always shorting out causing me to blow a ton fuses.

        A huge Thanks to Tunedub for getting me in and to George for taking care of me!!!

              hmm, my rear wiper hasn't worked for a few months now, fuse is fine, front and rear spray works perfect, never had an issue - perhaps I will remove the hatch panel and take a look at the wiring, or just remove the wiper all in all and replace it with a plug...

                Likely the motor itself. The tubes in the rear seize and break then it fills the motor full of fluid. You will also find your key won't work in the trunk lock anymore.

                  Glad you got it worked out! I know how frustrating it is to have a mysterious issue.
