Check that the fan blade/rotor is not stiff to turn. If the shaft is dry or the bearing is on the way out then the motor strains to turn it and the resistors end up going.

It happened on my wife's altea. I learnt the expensive way. After that lesson, a few squirts of wd40 or some similar lubricant solved the problem.
