Furnace Fuse Keeps Blowing

The propane furnace in my 2006 Kountry Star DP has 2 5 amp fuses at the furnace. One 5 amp fuse is labeled fan and the other one is labeled thermostat. The furnace seems to run normally, but the thermostat 5 amp fuse will last from a couple of days to a couple of months. Does anyone know why or what would make this fuse blow at random? Thanks in advance.

Are the Thermostat wires behind a pocket door. My old Gulfstar was and the door rubbed the wires. Could cause a short if some wires are bare.

No. The wires come straight out of the furnace under the refrigerator. No apparent obstruction. Could it be the thermostat?

Pull it off the wall and carefully slide the wires out of the hole. Both of mine had a bunch of wire nuts and tape splicing the RV wires to the T stat wires.
