Default Electrical Issues

I have a 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel that has recently began having electrical issues. The original issue was the speedometer went out, the brake light came on as did the ABS light. I figured it was the speed sensor so I replaced it, yet that didn't fix the problem. Found that the fuse to those components were blown, so I replaced it. This worked for a couple weeks then the fuse blew again, same game replaced it and it kept blowing. Now the fuse blows immediately when replaced and the vehicle is started. it may last 10-15 miles and then blows, but something is shorting it out. Has anyone experienced anything like this or have an idea of where I should begin my search? Thank you in advance!
