IJust yesterday I was driving to work at 5:30 am (still dark out) and all of a sudden all my dash lights and hvac and radio lights went out. Got home and checked the fuses. Sure enough I blew a fuse, the lone top right 10 amp fuse in the passenger side fuse box (I think it was called int lmps or something like that.) Anyways I replaced it and it worked fine all the lights worked and I could dim them or brighten them. Then about an 1 hour or so later the fuse blew again. I ended up replacing it 3 times. (The last time it blew immediately) So my question is would should I check next? I'm thinking there is probably a short somewhere, but I honestly don't know or know what to check. Any help would be great.

no clue. Do you have any aftermarket anything hooked up to your dash lights? do you have an aftermarket radio?

nope no aftermarket stuff hooked up to it. I had it checked out today, and it was also blowing the parking lamp fuse under the hood, I have to bring it back in on thursday when I have time to leave it, but it appears to be a problem with the dimmer switch or the light control stalk or a combo of the 2.
