Default Blown fuse

The 10AMP fuse that controls the instrument light, tail lamp and turn signal keeps blowing. I know that there must be a short but can't find exactly where it is. Has anyone here had the same or similar problem and what was the cure.

did you recently install anything aftermarket into the car? aftermartket alarm system? aftermarket stereo system? fog lights?

check anything you may have changed recently. whatever it you have is drawing to much amprage from your electical system causing the fuse to blow........

Are you replacing them with the same amp fuses? Make sure you do so. When working with fuses, bigger is not better.

The only thing that I changed was the wedge bulb in the turn signal. The replacement bulb was exactly the same brand as the blown bulb. I replaced the blown fuse with the same amperage, I must admit I tried a 20AMP to see what would happen and it blew that too.
