CLG-CIG not working

[Sevy14]

Hey folks my CLK-CIG circuit is not working. No interior light, no power door locks, cigarette lighter. Found a blown fuse, replaced and blew it as well. Obviously a short somewhere. Any hints on what the issue is before I trace down by isolating each draw?

try unplugging the cig lighter socket (drop glove box and reach around and unplug orange wire white end ,squeeze end and pull off)
they can get shorted out with some accesory plugs that are built for modern cars that dont have cig lighting sockets anymore , just aux port sockets

Unfortunately that once wasn’t it. I’ll keep digging.

that fuse feeds the orange wire (12v constant)

Paul, AIRC the floor shifter light wire was also a source..
Don't see it on the schematic.

the grey floor shift lamp wire can break and short on the shifter but that blows fuse that runs through the dimmer and powers the dash cluster illumination lamps

Figured it out. The wire for the clock on the radio is grounded out someplace. Previous owner installed new radio and rewired to fuse box and wasn’t using the clock wire. Unplugged it from the junction box and all good. Thanks
