BTW - until your problem is properly solved - a work around would probably 
be - remove the bulb from the dome light.  This is NOT a fix - just a way to 
keep from blowing fuses for the moment.

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?
