Hello all!

I took ownership of my Williams clio 3 about 6 months ago. A cracking little car with N3 WLM as the original reg, apparently an ex-renault demo car from a London dealership.
Bit of a change from the Subaru Impreza turbos i have perviously owned, as i work for Subaru they were the obvious choice but i fancied a change and have adored the Clio Williams since i was a youth.
The biggest shock is the reliabilty (had it coming really, it is an 11 year old renault after all!). I Have fixed some of the standard clio charms ie. noisy PAS (slick 50 fluid), no heater blowers etc. but im am stuck on this one:

The fuse for the left hand sidelight/rear tail lamp fuse keeps blowing. From the Haynes manual i can see that the dash illumination and front fog switch also used this fuse, they are also not working.
Just want to know if anyone else has had this problem and if it is a common Clio issue so I can look at that first before taking the dash out and tracing the wires?
Thanks peeps!

Try disconnecting the electric window switches one at a time.
