Fuse (f3) keeps blowing - need help !

Hello every one I have a 1999 slk 230. The fuse F3 in the K40 relay keeps blowing. I have already soldered the k40 and the fuse F3 keeps blowing. I have already ordered a new k40. It should be here in 2 days but before I put the new k40 in, it would be great if any one can tell me please what does the F3 fuse protect or what is it connected to.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

All will be solved once you get a new K40---fuse f3 protects K40k9= M1 and M2 relay on the K40!!
