Default auto shutoff fuse keeps blowing

Okay - this is my first time here and I need some help. I was driving my 92 Dakota last night when all of a sudden it just went dead. My AUTO SHUTOFF fuse was blown. I replaced it with another fuse, and as soon as I tried to start the truck, it blew as well. Does anyone have a clue what could possibly be wrong - or know where I can find the Electrical Wiring diagram for my truck? Your help is greatly appreciated.

It sounds like you have a short to ground. I'll try to dig up a wiring schematic. What is the fuse name and number as listed on the fuse panel cover? Which fuse panel is it located in?

Did you recently install anything? Mess with anything under the dash or hood?

Thanks for your assistance. We got the diagrams for the wiring and are going to work on it this weekend. I appreciate your quick response. Have a great weekend!
