Default fuse problem

well my car got broken into recently. but my fuse for my instruction cluster, tailights and plate light keeps burning out. i went threw 3 then the last one held for 2 days, then blew. now they all get blown pretty much right after i turn my lights on. oh, it started acting up after i cleaned under my hood(with a pressure washer). i covered the intake and battery, and just cleaner for maybe a minute or less, not sprayin down the fuse box or anything, but its been like over a week now, if it was a water issue, i think it would have evaporated or drained out by now. plus, if it was the water, why did that fuse last for 2 days then go out? any input will help, cuz i cant drive at night without working tails. thanx in advance.

Check all your lighting related wire under the hood to see if one was forced out of it's connector and is grounding out.

And maybe pop out your fuse box and make sure it's drained.

Also check to see if there's water in any of the lamp housings or connectors.

if your radio got snatched this could be where your problem lies. if one of your wire in your radio harness is grounding out it can cause your problem.

i didn't think the wires from the radio could cause just that one fuze to keep browing? but I will check. And yep, I feel sorry for whoever I hit, but I get my license back on the 7th, so hope my praying holds up 4 me(and them).
