Welcome to the forums.
What is "ramp up" ?
Put the stat in OFF. Try FAN ON first. See if that works.
Try removing the stat and replacing the fuse.
You'll need to disconnect wiring to determine where the short is. Don't put a larger fuse in.

You could also have a reversing valve issue. That valve is only energized in A/C mode or defrost mode and those coils can short out.
