Its a short in the wiring somewhere I'd start right around the recepticles see if there is any frayed or worn out wire shielding also. make sure you are using the right amp fuse in the owners manuelthere is a listing for fuse values do not exceed the fuse rating it maycause damage to the electrical system or even worse
