Default Keyless Entry and Power locks problem regarding BCM fuse...

Okay so I about a week ago my dome lights and power locks stopped working. I did some reading on here and went to check my fuses. The BCM fuse had popped and I replaced it without turning the car battery off it popped again. Then I turned off the battery and replaced again. As soon as opened the door it popped again... I am not knowledgable on eletrical systems all that much but information that might help...

I recently converted my rear seat light with led's and my in-door lights with LED's. I dont think that would be it but just in case...

Hmmm, must be a short somewhere. . . . Try removing the lights you installed.

It has to have something to do with the dome light circuit I would think. Since it did not pop until you opened the door.

Ill give that a try but if the lights were installed and working for several days before it went out could that still be the problem?
