"room fuse" keeps blowing

The fuse uder my dash for the radio, dome light, door alarm, keeps frying. anyone got any suggestions on what to look for?

also my hood light stopped lighting at around the same time.

how many times have you replaced it to test the theory that it "keeps frying"? Keep trying, after about 6 or 7 blown fuses (they're dirt cheap) let us know.

2-3 in the troubleshooting process... but i think i'm getting close to the root...

well, those are 5 or 10 amps right, put in a 15, they might just be realy shitty fuses, if they still blow with a bigger fuse(not too big) then there is some problem

well maybe, but its 10A for a reason though... i'd imagine any more amps going thru there would damage another device...
