Room Lamp fuse keeps blowing

When my 01 Maxima GLE is running, or the key is at least in the on position, and the fuse is blown, everything works fine except the interior lights (dome, vanity, door, trunk). When the fuse is good, everthing works. The fuse burns out between minutes and hours of driving. At this point, with the car not "on", the remote and power locks in the door stop working. The interior lights never work unless the fuse is good. I think it's a short but where should I look?

2004 nissan maxima fog light fuse location want to check the fuse fog lights not working

System Description EKS0058X Control of the fog lamps is dependent upon the position of the combination switch (lighting switch). The lighting switch must be in the 2ND position or AUTO position (LOW beam is ON) for front fog lamp operation.When the lighting switch is placed in the fog lamp position the BCM (body control module) receives input signal requesting the fog lamps to illuminate. When the headlamps are illuminated, this input signal is communicated to the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) across the CAN communication lines. The central processing unit of the IPDM E/R controls the front fog lamp relay coil. When activated, this relay directs power to the front fog lamps. OUTLINE Power is supplied at all times ? through 15A fuse [No. 43, located in the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room)] ? to front fog lamp relay, located in the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) ? through 15A fuse [No. 34, located in the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room)] ? to CPU (central processing unit) in the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room). Power is also supplied at all times ? through 50A fusible link (letter f , located in the fuse and fusible link box) ? to BCM (body control module) terminal 55 ? through 10A fuse [No. 21, located in the fuse block (J/B)] ? to BCM (body control module) terminal 42. When the ignition switch is in ON or START position, power is supplied ? to ignition relay, located in the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) ? through 10A fuse [No. 1 located in the fuse block (J/B)] ? to BCM (body control module) terminal 38. When the ignition switch is in ACC or ON position, power is supplied

1998 Nissan maxima GLE taillights fuse keep blowing! bulbs are good when checking wires by light bulbs I noticed that the backup lights where hooked to the taillights is this normal!?

reverse lights get power from a reversing switch and hove a separate circuit
check for correct bulbs in the holders as a duel contact bulb in a single point contact holder will short and blow fuses

My 2000 Maxima GLE blower has stopped working. The a/c compressor comes on & runs but no air. I have run the temp switch above 80 to see if heater comes on but nothing. I do not find a fuse...

Check fuses 52 15A and 51 15A in the underhood fuse box. Check the Blower motor relay behind the right side of dash. Check the fan control amplifier (controls fan speed) behind right side of dash. Sound more like a blown fuse or bad blower motor relay
