Electrical problems!

For some reason, my "METER" fuse keeps on going. Keep on losing my Tach, and it's getting annoying. Put in a new one, it's fried as soon as I turn the key. Anyone know the answer to this one?

I had this problem and it turned out to be the reverse switch on the transmission shorting to ground.

There are many devices on the METER circuit. A wiring diagram will help alot.

i didn't have time to do a search before, so i posted this. looks like it might be the reverse sensor, my dad ground the gears when he took it for a joyride.

anyone have any idea what this costs to fix/replace? and what damage will it do to just remove it? will i be able to use all the gauges from the METER fuse afterwards?
