Did you try disconnecting the wires and or lights at the other end?

Subject: [DMCForum] Down for season

I think my car is down for the season due to an electrical short that 
killed my new battery Sunday. I tried to charge the battery and it was 
shorting out my charger.

I diagnosed my problem by removing my battery and connecting my 
electrical tester on the negative and positive battery terminals and 
started to remove one fuse at a time till i discovered the short. The 
short is for my interior and door lights. I have to remove the roof 
section because i think that is where the short is because my tester 
beeps almost every time i wiggle the door wiring harness. My car is off 
the road till next year unless i can kill the short and keep my 
interior lights any everything else working. I am not happy because of 
this new problem.

Anyways if i cant correct this problem or give it a band-aid it will 
give me a jump start at removing my engine and starting my winter 
project.

This is a sneaky problem that might just be a problem that others are 
having where there battery mystery just goes dead because when i hook 
up the new battery everything just seems fine but the short is still 
there and it doesnt blow fuses.

My car would always keep the battery charged for months so i know this 
problem  just started.
