Okay Im looking for advice on how else to pin point this issue. First off all of a sudden the other day I went to switch on the gauge light/tail lights and the fuse blew, then after inserting new fuses they keep blowing. I disconnected all lights in the circuit but I still keep blowing fuses I think it may be a short somewhere I havent checked BUT what other connections in the circuit is controlled by this switch.
Also: I checked the wiring schematic in my Haynes and it only says the tail lamp circuit controls the exterior lights but then inside it turns on the back lights to the gauges? so where is the wiring diagram for this circuit?

RESOLVED! Turns out my A/C switch shorted out and was grounding a power wire at the switch causing the tail-lamp fuse to keep blowing when I go to turn the lights on.
