    There should be the common panel at your left foot on the floor at the firewall. There's probably another under the hood. Possibly another in the sideboard or under the bunk.

    If you keep blowing the same fuse you either are overloading that circuit.. have a pinched or skinned wire somewhere. . or have a ground problem. I doubt it's a ground problem because the fuse won't blow without current travel and it won't travel at all without a ground.

    This could be a relay problem , also. Not a fuse.

    On my older Volvo the problem was in the red light at the bottom of the door, opened it up and could see right away bad connections

    Once you find the fuse disconnect everything that fuse powers. Plug one at a time that will narrow your search that is shorting you out
