I went through a lot of fuses last night trying to figure out what is causing fuses to blow. I was pretty methodical in an elimination process, disconnecting one thing at a time in order to figure out what is not causing the problem in the wiring. I started at tail lights and moved forward. I even pulled light bulbs one at a time. These 1157, dual filament light bulbs have been known to overheat and melt one filament into another causing a short. Since this problem happens when the parking lights and dash lights are turned on.
Here is the list so far: tail light bulbs, tail light harness, brake light harness, dome light harness, steering column harness, replaced headlight switch, front parking light harness and bulbs,
I got as far as pulling the gauge cluster last night, but it was still connected to the wire harness by one wire. I will have to cut it because I didn't use a quick disconnect to remove it.
