Unfortunately I don't really have access to info on that model.

But most cars do have fuses for protect for problems like this. Some are regular fuses and others are what is called a fusible link. What this is, is a piece of wire that has very weak metal that is designed to burn out in the event of a short. This way the whole harness & component isn't damaged...

If you have access to a manual for this car. See if it has a section for fuses & fusible links. More than likely that is where your problem lies...
