So I notice my engine (oil temp) where rising, reason: radiator fans where shut.. they goes on ONLY when I turn on the a/c .VWVortex - Overheating and the all famous battery fuseJun 17, 2016VWVortex - Fuse box melted.. no A/C.

Alternators are meant to maintain battery charge and not to charge a totally dead battery as it would draw a very high current that may damage the alternator and, yes, melt the fuse. I replaced the fuse box, sanded well all the contacts, replaced 110A fuse, and greased everything up while charging the removed battery by a dedicated battery charger.
