You failed to mentioned which fuse blows however if it’s the INST LPS fuse, insert an ammeter in line with the output side of that fuse, then disconnect, one at a time the dash lights line, the Audible Alarm line, the Fog Lamp illumination line.

When the problem goes away you have discovered the culprit.


Happy Racing!
