<VV> blown electric fuses

[J R Read_HML]

Are you turning on the dome light by opening the door or by turning the 
light switch all the way left?

Either way, my first thought is that the only place I can think of where the 
two circuits "come together" is in the light switch.  I'd be looking at 
that.

Here is the background.  the car is a 66 corsa coupe.  If I have a fuse in 
the dome light slot everything on that circuit works fine.  If I have a fuse 
in the dash panel light slot, the dash lights work fine.  If I have a fuse 
in both of them, when the dome light comes on the dash light fuse burns out 
quickly, even when it is a 15 amp and not a 3 amp.  I don't understand how 
the two could be connected in any way.... Any ideas on what is happening?
