Fuse #3 (15amp) keeps blowing as soon as ignition is on. Electrical diagram for 1997 year shows this fuse controls the line labelled "C" (on the left side, green wire) of the pic below which goes to connector 285.

Anyone know where this connector is located? Plan is to disconnect wires from this connector until short is discovered.

Looks like 96 is same as 97 year since the nonfunctioning things are: directionals, rear wiper/washer, temp/fuel gauges
