Replaced turn signal switch and neutral saftey switch along with the circuit boards in the taillights checked the wiring from front to back
You can rule out internal transmission wires. The only thing I know of would be the reverse light wiring. You have one power wire to the neutral switch. So when the lights are supposed to come on the fuse blows the turn signal . You said you check the wiring, Did you check for continuity? High resistance cause a higher amperage draw. Also did you check the hot wire for short to ground? Try leaving the engine off. No lights on. Put it in reverse, see what lights come on. Have someone stand in back and watch as you put it in reverse. The lights should flash for a split second before the fuse blows. If any other lights come on, you have lost ground to the reverse lights.

sounds like a mouse has got in and chewed the cables,their is no easy fix from what i can think of but check all the wires and connections in case water has got into it,or snow if your in alaska.its fifteen years old now so its possible that some insulation has broken down or a wiring loom has chaffed somewhere underneath

Hello, First off you have a direct short...this is where there is high resistance in the circuit such as corrusion from a water leak, rain or bad seals or a short to ground. Often there is a problem with bulbs that appear to be the same catalog number that match, yet they may have different filiments or bases. THE OLDER VOLVOS WERE VERY TOUCHY WHEN IT COMES TO CERTAIN BULBS AND THEIR METAL BASES.
Did you recently replace the bulb in the 3rd Brake light assembly in the back window? I just checked all Toyota service bulletins on ALLDATA and MITCHELL for this model year and found nothing.
Let me know what your next plan of action is........thank you

there is a short somewhere.put a test light in place of the fuse.
the light will glow bright.when the short is removed,the light will go dim
