Diode across the coil faulty?

Incorrect fuse size (value)?

Coil terminal intermittently touching the metal frame or bracket holding it?

Quoted from topkat:

Would a bad diode sometime function properly and then other times blow the fuse ?
It’s the correct fuse rating
I don’t believe a terminaL is shorter

If the diode was open circuit it's possible.
