'96 Disco Rear/side lights keep blowing fuse

Hi,
Help needed!. My Discovery keeps blowing the fuse for the rear right lights and dashboard lights. My OH (He who mends said Disco's frequent 'glitches' is stumped.But dont tell him I told you that!.) Replace the fuse and it blows again after a variable length of time.Bulbs/connections etc checked.Coming down to a wiring fault but where do you start?. OH will be back tonight as i dont understand the technical stuff but if anyone has any experience of where the fault is likely to be found or any ideas I would be very grateful.Cheers.Kate

Have you tried takeing all the bulbs out?,can you isolate the rear lights from the rest? Sounds like you have a live to earth somewhere, no easy solution you just have to find it.A good place to start is the rear door wires if the N° plate light is on the same circuit as they can get trapped in the door or break!

Good luck
