    Hey,

    I have a 00 Colt 1.3, that keeps blowing the central locking, radio, heater fuse. I have replaced only at the weekend and its gone again. I'm thinking there is a short somewhere but I have no idea of where to start looking.

    Any ideas?

    If theres an aftermarket radio fitted, i'd start there. Probably, the insulating tape has gone soft and fallen off the wires ;)
    Next thing to look for, is the wiring at the hinges in the doors. Drivers door first, then passenger door.
    Does the heater(fan?) work normally ?
    Also check the interior light bulb fitting.

    get a 12v bulb on some long wires, fit the wires instead of the fuse, -the bulb will light up when the short is found. that will narrow your search.
