Lightbulb Hazard Light Circuit Issue

Stupid fuse box...

Back when I was doing my stereo installation, I noticed one of my fuses was burnt out. I replaced it, naturally, and later after hooking the battery back up... it was burnt again. Ok... so I pull that one out, and put a new fuse in (without unhooking the battery) and the fuse is like POP SNAP SIZZZLE. No good!

I figured out, soon thereafter, that my hazard lights weren't working. So, since my evil fuse is the only burnt fuse, I'm gonna infer that my hazards are on that circuit. Also, my overhead light doesn't operate, my glove compartment light, or the little light by the ignition.

I'm trying to figure out if I'm dealing with a bunch of burnt out lightbulbs here or if I've just got a short somewhere in the system. Does anyone know what sits on the Hazard Light circuit on an 85 GS? Anyone have a diagram?

Those items have some built in control tied into the CPU. It's located under the drivers side kick panel. What you're describing though sounds like a short in the system that's frying your fuse.
