Maybe try removing fuses 17 & 18 ?
Those fuses would have blown if the trouble was down stream of them wouldn't they?
I think the problem lays in the Pulse Module, perhaps the starter motor is getting continuous power slowly heating the fuse up until it blows. Could the solenoid be jammed?
The 20 amp fuse powers a lot of systems, all lower in amperage.
I am not so hot on sparky stuff though so this is just a hunch.
