Did you try messing with your light control switch? That could be the culprit too...

If it was somehow switched to OFF or stuck there because the switch wore out it could be the problem...

If there was a short you'd expect a fuse to pop and I don't think all those things would be on the same relay, specially the dash lights.

You didn't say that the taillight fuse was burning out... That probably says you have a short somewhere...

You would need a wiring diagram to properly check the whole circuit... I'd check at all the lights for bare wires or loose bulbs, could also be inside the switch.

Does the fuse burn out instantly?
