It depends on the vintage. I think some later ones are protected
against damage, though will still act funny.
The regulator that "protects" the '87 and later climate control circuits
WILL burn up if the pump isn't repaired pretty soon. That's the reason
for the fuse! Also the regulator shuts off the aux pump AND the blower
motor when the combined current drain exceeds the design value!
