[Shop-talk] Fuses

[Moose]

OK, I'm sure I'm missing something here, but I figured I'd ask.

My Jeep had a short circuit and blows a fuse if I turn on the lights.

So I remove all bulbs on the circuit and try again.  Blown fuse.

I take some other items off the circuit and try again, blown fuse.

Moving around and trying different things, blowing fuses all around.

I found the short, fixed it and all is well.

My question is, is there a way to do this without having to blow fuses? 
I'm guessing a meter should show 0ohm resistance if there is still a 
short, but I was not getting a open circuit.

Any ideas so I don't have to go through a hand full of fuses next time?

Thanks.
