No one is going to troubleshoot the issue for you over the INTERWEB. I'm guessing you did a "wire tuck" recently?

Get a schematic of the car so you know where the wire goes and what color it is. Then start unplugging things (e.g. the engine harness) until the short clears. The shorted part will be something past where you unplugged.
