Default Instrument cluster fuse
My instrument cluster lights fuse blew. I replaced it and it blew instantly again. Where to start?

What year/trim?

Does unplugging the dimmer switch prevent the fuse from blowing?

The fuse blows with the dimmer unplugged and or with the gauge cluster unplugged. Dammit! What next?

Do the same test after unplugging the radio connector. Also inspect the Red and Red/Black wires in the radio connector for damage or signs of a short.
