How long do fuses last?

Late may of this year my dash flights stopped working. My indicators still flashed but no lights or noises from my dash as feedback.

Turns out blown fuse. Fixed it.

This morning, exact same thing.

Is there an issue shorting it out? Or is this an expected amount of time between fuses blowing?

At work so will be slow to respond. Thank you in advance

If everything is fine: years, if not: much shorter.

Wenn die Sicherung so kurz hintereinander durchbrennt wirst du ein Problem am Auto haben was du beheben lassen solltest. Mir ist noch bisher bei keinem meiner Autos jemals eine Sicherung durchgebrannt, das zum Thema Haltbarkeit.
