It can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Mine ended up being 6 wires that were fused together under the dash, very lucky the car didn't burn down :? . I was getting strange things like the dash dimmer switch was activating the central locking and the footwell courtesy light and the dimmer switch wouldn't completely dim the dash lights.
