Default interior lamp short in '01 SLE

the 10 amp fuse for the interior lamps blows, I assume it is a nicked wire somewhere, any suggestions on where to start? When it first started I could replace the fuse and it would last for a few days or weeks. I have looked at the twilight sentenal/dash light switch, to looks okay. Have looked at the power window switches, I did not see anything obvious. Thanks

just so you don't feel alone, I have the same problem and still haven't found anyway to fix it yet.

Is there any particular time, or action, that causes the fuse to blow? Have you done work on the wiring, or areas near the wiring, that would cause a nick in the wiring? Start in the area where any recent work was done just before the problem started.
