I recommend self-resetting 20a circuit breakers after non-predictable random 
popping 16A fuses in left box locations H & I.   
Couldn't get an accurate current analysis as the stall and start surges were 
quite high after bypassing the switches and running voltage straight to relays 
in the doors.
