    There usually is no fuse located in a thermostat. What type of heating system is this ? If its forced air system such as central heat then the fuse would be outside on the main unit usually on a circuit board and it may be red.. 10a rating.

    I really think you need to get a electric meter and sound out the problem before you spend a lot of money for parts and it still will not work.

    When you say that the heater works what exactly do you mean? It sounds like it may not be hooked up right if it does work for only one cycle.
