Default HELP electrical problem on del sol

hey i just recently got my car back from a stero shop down south. and when i dropped it off everything was in working condition. NEXT thing i know i picked it up and and there is a bunch of electrical stuff wrong with it. MY gauge cluster doesn't work. my brake light/park light doesn't work. my fuses keep on blowing everytime i put a new one in. Then i just got tired of this and riped out my whole system, took out my deck. THEN i put a brand new fuse in there and certainly the fuse blew again for my park lights. I know there is a short somewhere but im not sure where? can you guys possibly tell me where to look or anything? thanks

take it back to them, thats all ic an say, or you have to get the wireing diagram for the car, and check it out, cuz theres no way i can tell you what those wires do without looking at seeing where they are getting power, and the power flow of them, 2 things you definatly need, 1 a wiring diagram, to check out the meter leights, and check the park lights, theres more on that fuse than the parking lights, and start playing around with the other stuff that is on the parking light fuse. and get that fixed and go from there, also check to make sure its not a melted bulb somewhere in the system, yes i have seen bulbs do some stuff like that if you got anything else u want to ask ask away i'm glad to help

so two things...
multimeter
wiring diagram

stay away form a test light for this one i don even use a test light unless its checking fuses for power thats it, everything else is done through my multimeter cuz it gives you accual readings, you have to have a good meter though, i recomned Fluke or Blue Point, i love my Blue Point meter, but in school i use a Fluke which is a good quality meter also

hey wasup bro...yea maybe its the whole fuse box cover but then only ONE fuse keeps on blowing out and thats my park light. im not to sure whats going on with my brake lights.i wonder if there is a fuse for that one.but im going to take it to my friends shop and he is going to check everything out. but my other friends says it a loose ground wire ( short ) somewhere. But what happen to my gauge cluster was that the fuse was blown and when i put a new one in there it worked. but good luck i hope you find out the problem
