Short in Dash
I have a shot in the 15A circuit that feeds the hazards, turn signal, and auto clock.
Every tIme I install a new fuse and turn the key to aux the fuse blows.
After the fuse blows I check the circuit; no instrument cluster lights including turn signals or hazard flashers.
Also, no clock numbers (though clock backlighting - a different circuit I assume, does work).
Lastly, the exterior turn signal lighting DOES work, even though the instrument cluster turn signal 'symbols' DO NOT illuminate.
Neither the hazard exterior or instrument cluster lights work..
Thoughts on where to start?🤔

Oh, this is fun stuff! Used to do this type of work on Land Rovers for a living. LOL. Find a good ETM, locate the fuse details and or power distribution diagrams for this circuit and just start checking. They are simple cars and shouldn't be too hard to find! Don't get discouraged, you'll find it...

I think that your lights/turn signal switch it's messed up ....
