As I have been told, no actuators needed to be changed - only switching from 15A to 20A fuse (to be honest, 5A more is surely an extra load on any circuit designed for 15A). At least, this is what they do here. Hopefully, no burned actuators will occur.

Just because the fuse alone worked for you doesn't mean the actuators aren't a problem with the car.
My case:
1. Door locks didn't respond
2. Dealer checked diagnostics and found a blown fuse error
3. Replaced #57 from 15A to 20A
4. All locks work except for the front passenger side, which would lock but not unlock
5. 3 hours pass, drivers door lock doesn't even budge. I can only lock it from manual key through the outside.
6. Both actuators are being replaced today.
Blowing a fuse isn't normal - I bet you'll have problems down the road.
You were lucky. B*tching at people who aren't as lucky as you is pretty low.
