Default Turn signal blown fuse

Anyone had a turn signal fuse burn out on an 89? I disconnected the back up light at the trans to eliminate that circuit. The fuse blows within minutes or hours after inserting a new one. Checked all the light sockets and checked for broken wires. Could it be the flasher or the turn signalswitch?
Happy FathersDay to all you dads.

Yep, having similar problem. My tail lights blow a fuse when using the blinker. I found a thread on another corvette forum from over a year ago with a guy having the same problem. His ended up being a worn wire/connection in the steering column. Once he took the column apart and fixed it, no more problems. I have a week off from work in a couple weeks and that's exactly what I'm doing. I've check all connections, bulbs and wires I can get to and have found nothing, so I don't have much choice left. Another mechanic had suggested that is a fairly common problem with 80's gm vehicals that had tilt steering.
