My Brava 1999 does not have the same fuse for all those things.... Are you sure that all those items are together on only one fuse ??
What I do in this situation is replace the fuse with a 12V bulb, easy to make a gizmo for this from a blown fuse. Then if there is a short the bulb lights, and you jiggle and fiddle while the ball and chain reports whether the light goes out, or is brighter or dimmer. Switching things on/off should locate which circuit the short is on. Take what you can out of the circuit first, like bulbs, then if the bulb lights it's probably going to ground through the short.
