Reminds me of the newsgroup post so many years ago. The customer had a
system that would blow a 5 amp fuse once a week. He put in a 30 amp fuse,
figuring that since 30 is six times larger than five, it would last six
times longer.

Anyhow, the fuse did not blow for the next six weeks, but several other
parts of the system did.

Fuses open/blow for a reason. Installing a bigger one is one of the better
ways I know of to either cause damage or start a fire.
