Fuse 15 blowing rings a bell. Cannot remember who had the issue or what it was. @tomcat59alan ? Filler cap release?

I seam to recall Shippers have trouble with a customers car and Marty pointed him in the right direction and it was a trim screw that had caught the wiring loom by the sill.
That might have been it.

It was the window switch pack wire trapped around the stud for the central cubbybox that was trapped and kept blowing N1 fuse it did blow the BCEM which Callrover fixed...Marty pointed us in the right direction tracing the wires...

What does F15 supply?...
On mine the tailgate lock actuator - that sounds like a good place to start.
RF aerial module - guess something there might be shorting if unplugged?
Interior lights.
Amplifiers in door.

Hi
I didn't check inside the fusebox, but did remove every fuse looking for any dis-colouring.
Fuse 14
1 Rear Central door locking...…I did have problems with drivers rear super locking, had to smash the motor to get the door to open, the connection block is now disconnected and I now don't have rear central locking. I never had rear light problems when I was sorting this out.
2 Fuel flap solenoid
3 Trailer socket
4 Tailgate central door locking
For a few months, if I need to get in the boot I would put a fuse in then open the boot, but had to it out before driving otherwise it would blow. But at the moment I can't put the fuse in at all.
Fuse 15
1. Courtesy lights...…………………….These turn on when they like
2 Handset receiver...…………………...N/A
3 Load space light
4 Rear wiper
5 Sub woofer
6 Rear audio system amplifiers

Agree I would have that stripped down and looked at...in fact Barry had an L322 that main dealer couldn't fix and he sorted it think it kept blowing fuse will ask him...

Did you not say there is no radio fitted if so I would be checking the redundant wiring...
Also your disconnected doorlock connectors if damp has got in could cause a short as it sounds very much like that is your problem as these are the areas that are supplied by your blown fuses...

Hi
I think that's a good idea, not sure where to locate everything but at least I will be doing something, I will also look under fuse panel inside the main fuse box.
These fuses aren't connected to my lights problem which is what I really need solving because its MOT time after today.
Didn't anyone think my continuity testing the wires from the Becm outputs of the relevant lights would work.
