Moved :wink:

Sounds like a wire is shorting out onto the chassis. First place I would look is on the front behind the bumper, the wires go through the front panel into the body loom and can rub on the bodywork if loose.

Won't be the wires at the front, if the fuse blows as soon as the ignition is on.
Sort out the glovebox light.
