check the wiring in the back of the light, just take the cover off and unscrew the 2 screws and check that out, other than that im stumped

that fuse is also the memory for the radio and also the clock.

did you do any radio work lately? did you do any sort of work on the car lately?

you have a short to earth somewhere...

again the 3 things that the fuse powers are...

1. radio memory
2. clock memory
3. interior lights, boot light also i think...

seems ou have a short circuit someware on the intieror light cuircuit. coul dbe anything from a wire rubbing earth, bad body control modual or alarm unit. this fault might just be staring you in the face, or take 3 hours to find. its really hard to say.

i would start at the alrm modual, perhaps try to unpluging it and try again.

things like this comonly appear when you have done something to your car ( no matter how insignificant it may be )

that sounds strange, i know that on the majority of cars the fuse that powers the memory for the clock and radio also powers the interior light. so if the radio and the clock work i cant see how your interior light blows. i'll have a look at mine today and get back to you...
