Washing machine fuse blows every couple of washes

My washer (creda w100fw) fuse blows frequently, it seems to go at the end of a cycle, though not every time. I've replaced the fuse 5 times now in the last month. Any clues?

    I have the same problem except the plug fuse blows. It is plugged into a Circuit Breaker. Could it be the circuit breaker at fault?

The machine is pulling to much power.check to see if it is on a 15 or 20 amp outlet. you said you replaced the fuse. the amp size should be on it. if it is a 15 amp fuse,plug the machine into a 20 amp circuit and see if the fuse blows then. it shouldn't since it wasn't blowing everytime on the 15 amp circuit, but never put a 20 amp fuse in a 15 amp socket! the fuse can handle the load[ no pun intended], but the electrical wire would burn not blowing the fuse, thus causing a fire.
hope this helps.
