1 Wiring problem

Failure Date: 02/15/2005

2000 Dodge 2500 ram van. Air conditioning compressor 12 volt clutch, which draws 4. 5 amps measured is fused at 20 amps , the power to this fuse only goes to one place the clutch. The wire appears to be #24 gauge which may be ok for the 5 amps or so but not for 10amps or more so why the invitation to a wiring harness fire by powering that line with a 20 amp fuse? I noted this condition after I had an airconditioning clutch problem. And found wires in the harness burnt and melted togather in the harness.
