Default keep blowing blower fuse

I keep blowing my blower fuse. I'll replace it with a new fuse it will last for about one drive then next time I drive the truck the blower wont work. I thought it might be the blower relay so i replaced that, the fuse still blew.

Anyone experience this before or have any idea what to check? Any help is appreciated, I really want to be able to use my AC soon

Probably the speed controller that's under the hood by the blower motor.

It has several wires going into it. Small box looking thing. Cheap replacement. They're just big resistors and eventually they all burn out.

Sorry if this is stupid but can I get more direction on where this is?

When I find it is there a way to test it to see if that's the problem or is it worth it to just change it out. Is this something that pepboys of autozone would carry?

Thanks

Problem fixed I was off I thought it had something to do with the blower motor but it turned out to be a warn wire in the searing column.
