Sure, I ran a bigger fuse in one of mine.

Any serious current draw would blow the 20 amp as well, the difference is minor and you still have full protection against a short.

Why the 20 amps? You were blowing the 15's? That also to me would seem like a sign of stiff action for the lock actuators.

If the bigger fuse fixes the blowing, I guess it's okay. Other things that do go wrong on these besides stiff action in the latch mechs are as Saabnutt says sometimes the switchpack contacts, also more often the central locking unit, which responds well to re-soldering of contacts at its relays. It is above the felt panel over driver's feet. And some have replaced the lock actuators and say that fixed a problem.
