Default NO LIGHTS !!!!!!!!! HELP !!!!!!

ok,just came home at dusk and turned on lites. I noticed no panel lights although instrument cluster is fine. I have headlites (high & low beam) , brake and turn lites. No front park lites, marker lites, license lites, tail lites or center console (Radio & heater) lites, cornering lites. Also horn doesnt work, but I dont know if it did anyway. They all worked I know for a fact last week because I checked every lite and replaced a few burned out bulbs. They could have stopped working anytime in last week and I didnt notice because I havent driven it in a week at nite. Ive been trouble shooting for 4 hours and cant find any shorts that are obvious. Everytime I put in a new fuse in the tail lite circuit it immediately blows. I took out center console cover and shift console looking for anything that could be shorting. Unplugged the headlite, corner lite, park lite connectors, but still blows the fuse.

Never mind, Fixed. Damn plastic cars, lol. The new radios ground wire was connected to a 'floating' ground. Tested ground with continuity tester, but its hot when lites are one. Just moved it to a straight ground. :smash:
