1st: My brake fluid level was between min and max so I filled it to the max line.
2nd: I unplugged and inspected the switch. There is no evidence of brake fluid leakage anywhere. Leaving the switch unplugged, I inserted a new fuse and it also blew. I re-inserted the switch and tried another fuse with the sae results.
What next?

I would unplug the brake pressure switch, and see if that keeps the fuse from blowing. If it does, you will need to buy a brake pressure switch replacement kit from your dealership. It is VERY easy to replace.
I would replace the switch if it is even slightly damp with brake fluid.
