by chance do you have a sunroof too? Sometimes water may drip into the dome light console if it has a leak.

Something is obviously grounding..and i think that fuse controls other things as well..like security. You have to isolate what the issue is.. read what the fuse controls and either try disconnecting things or taking bulbs out ... until you find whats blowing the fuse.

try unplugging your positive battery cable when you do that, if you have a stock radio make sure you have the code...
