Maybe because it's all disconnected its power that's going through to nothing with it being removed, any reason why you would put the rear wiper on if it's not there though??

did you do anything to the plug other than disconnect it? I've had plenty with the rear de wipered and it's never blown the fuse
If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

That's fare enough, of the earth is still connected it's probably earthing out or something when I took mine off and de wipered it like Johnny said it's never blown a fuse before, I only had one Earth on mine afterwards and it was for the lock,
