to start with isolate which part of the circuit is blowing the fuse.

look a the back of the fuse box where the wires plug on that fuse holder. ..
unplug them until you find which one is doing the blowing ..
then work on that circuit.

that's one method.

Last fall I blew fuse #8 (interior lights, cig lighter, and stop lights),
now when I try to replace the fuse with another 8 amp fuse it sparks and
blows right away.  So obvioulsy I've got a short or something somewhere.  I
guess I'm looking for suggestions from the volks on tracking this problem
down.  Thanks in advance!
