My audi have blown fuse fthat control dome light, power windows, power door lock and when park that cart would flashing lights once a while.

I have located the fuse and replaced but within 1 or 2 mins the lights would flashes and then the fuse would blow out. I've keep replace the fuse but it keep doing the same problem.

I say there is something else have gone shorts.

Any subjection to how to solve the problem?

Before the fuse blows, is there any of the components related to that circuit that don't work? Have you checked the wiring between the door and the door frame for damage that could be causing a short?

I recently have new audio system put in by car toys but I have them check on their installation yesterday they didn't find any installed error.

This problem came up after new audio was installed. They think it was coincidence that problem came up.

I will proceed with Audi local shop to look at today. I don't know what else to do. I thought it was just replace with new fuses would fix the problem I'm facing.

I bet it was the result of the radio install. Something was shorted and they just didn't see it.
