These are the interesting details that emerge after a decent dialogue. I like your reasoning on the A/C affecting the drive system during heat, it sounds spot on.

You weren't using the heat when the above occurred, were you (bolded)? If so, more reason to suspect high current draw from the heater unit or associated cabling. Does that still happen now that the fuse is blown, or has it stopped occurring?

FYI, do me a favor and report back whatever you find out. Don't leave us hanging.
