Not sure what you mean by ground exposed wire. Blowing fuses would indicate a problem on the positive feed side.

He means he has a dead short to ground.
OP care to elaborate some more on your problem? Pretty vague right now.
Type of chassis? Motor? Which fuse is blowing?
Once that is determined disconnect associated wiring. Reinstall fuse see if it holds, then start plugging items back in till fuse pops. It will give you somewhere to look.
This isn't the correct method, but can narrow down your search, not easy finding a short, good luck.

Is this fuse 25 7.5 Amp? Clock, Gauge and Indicator Lights? and Integrated control unit?
Anything change or install anything before the problem started to occur?

try pulling the 15amp fuse for the radio and see what happens with the fuse that keeps blowing. if it doesn't blow, then someone hooked up the dimmer wires wrong.
